Instructions

SWITCH® Sweet Itch Control Aid Pour-On Solution for Horses & Donkeys is a ready-to-use solution that should be applied at the rate of 1 ml per 10 kg body weight to a maximum of 40 ml. Dosage in relation to body weight: Up to 100 kg (10 ml) / 200 kg (20 ml) / 300 kg (30 ml) and Over 300 kg (40 ml)

Directions for use: 

SWITCH® should be applied using the calibrated dispensing chamber incorporated into the applicator bottle. Then, the measured dose should be applied in approximately equal portions to the mane and rump, avoiding the saddle area.

What our vet says

What our vet says
"Sweet itch is common in horses and is caused by the allergic reaction to bites from midges. Switch can be applied weekly from early spring to prevent sweet itch from occurring. If your horse already has sweet itch, apply to the mane and hindquarters and any areas which are affected. Try to avoid the saddle area."
