CAUTION:
Rumensin 05 pellets must be mixed evenly into the complete ration or supplement. Do not exceed the recommended levels or administer to cattle treated with a Rumensin Anti Bloat
Capsule within the previous 100 days as high levels of rumensin can cause reduced feed intake, poor growth, disease and death.
Do not allow dogs, horses or other equines access to feeds containing Rumensin 05 as ingestion of rumensin can be fatal.
Do not use Rumensin 05 in goats producing milk for humans.
