- How To Use Bloat Guard Top Dress On Feed
Use the enclosed measure which is equal to one-quarter of a standard measuring cup and holds approximately 18.9 g of BLOAT GUARD by weight. It is essential that each animal consume the total recommended dosage of BLOAT GUARD daily for adequate protection.

BLOAT GUARD is to be consumed daily. BLOAT GUARD should be fed as a top dressing on individual rations of ground feed, starting two or three days before the animals are exposed to bloat-producing conditions. The higher dosage levels are recommended when bloat-producing conditions are severe.
Repeat the feeding of BLOAT GUARD when animals are exposed to bloat-producing conditions more than 12 hours from the last feeding of BLOAT GUARD. But do not exceed the higher dosage levels in any 24 hour period.
If your animals do not accept BLOAT GUARD readily, stir the recommended amount into their feed. After animals become accustomed to the change in diet, use BLOAT GUARD as a top dressing.

NOTE: 1 kg is equivalent to 2.2 lbs.
BLOAT GUARD must be thoroughly and evenly distributed in food-stuffs. Each kilogram of BLOAT GUARD contains 530 grams of poloxalene. The normal recommended prevention dose of poloxalene is 1 gram per 45.36 kg of body weight per day. The following table illustrates various amounts of BLOAT GUARD which may be added to feeds in accordance with its intended daily intake.

For example: 25.0 kg of BLOAT GUARD when added to 1000 kg of complete feed results in a final concentration of 13.2 grams poloxalene per kg of feed (1.32% by weight).
- Feeding Directions
The dosage of BLOAT GUARD is proportional to body weight and also depends upon the severity of the bloat-producing conditions. The normal dosage of BLOAT GUARD (1 gram of poloxalene per 45.36 kg of body weight) is recommended for cattle under moderate bloat-producing conditions. For cattle under severe bloat-producing conditions, the normal dosage should be doubled (2 grams of poloxalene per 45.36 kg of body weight).
Safety & Health
- Cautions
It is essential that each animal consume the total recommended dosage of bloat guard daily for adequate protection.
The expiration date should be strictly observed. When the product is subject to extreme temperatures (37°c) for long periods of time (6 months) spontaneous combustion may occur. The product is not combustible unless it develops a strong odor. If this occurs flush with water and discard immediately.
