How full should a 1ml oral syringe be to have 2.5mg in it??
I was given some for a cat I'm fostering this evening. I was offered the option of a pill of a liquid given by oral syringe.
it is spelt 'syringe'
Syringe.................Some people use a syringe with drugs
The easiest way to dissolve trimethoprim for oral administration is to drop the tablets into a 60cc syringe - pull the plunger out then drop the tablets into the body of the syringe. Put the plunger back in and depress it until the tablets can't rattle around. Fill a small glass with tap water, then pull water into the syringe. Place a fingertip over the tip of the syringe to seal it, then shake the syringe to get the tablets to dissolve. This may take a few minutes, and the resulting paste/gel/liquid is not going to taste good to your pet so expect to need some help restraining him/her to give the medication.
Syringe compatibility is simply whether you can mix medications in the same syringe
To measure 6cc, you can use a syringe or a measuring cup marked with milliliter measurements. Ensure the measuring instrument is clean and free of any obstructions before filling it with the liquid to reach the 6cc mark.
Sucralfate is a gastroprotectant that is thought to help with digestive upset by coating the stomach lining to prevent damage to the gastric mucus from high levels of stomach acid. The easiest way to mix sucralfate slurry is to pull the plunger out of the back of a 10 or 30 cc oral syringe, drop the pills into the body of the syringe, place the index finger of your left (non-dominant) hand over the tip of the syringe, fill the syringe halfway or so with water, put the plunger back into the body of the syringe (careful, it's a tight fit) then shake the syringe to dissolve the pills in the water. Then run a large stream of water from the tap and draw the rest of the water needed to make the proper volume into the syringe. Shake again, with your index finger over the opening of the syringe tip, then administer orally. From experience, this is a messy procedure until you get used to the syringe flip in the middle - you can just barely get the seal of the plunger back into the syringe then have to carefully flip the syringe over and push some of the air out to get the plunger fully seated in the syringe again. Then, of course, most animals don't seem to like the taste of sucralfate and are more likely to spit it back out on you rather than swallow it.
0.3 ml in a 1.875 ml syringe is equal to 16% of the syringe's capacity.
