Based on the weight entered, your rabbit weighing 1 kg (2.2 lbs) requires a calculated total of 2 drops of Naqua Ivermectin Drops 1%.

Math Breakdown for a 1 kg (2.2 lb) rabbit:

Rate formula: 1 kg ÷ 0.5 kg/drop = 2 drops
Active ingredient delivery (1% solution = 10 mg/mL, 1 drop ≈ 0.05 mL):
2 drop(s) × 0.05 mL = 0.10 mL
0.10 mL × 10 mg/mL = 1.00 mg Ivermectin
1.00 mg ÷ 1 kg = 1.00 mg/kg
$$\text{Dose Calculation (mg/kg)}$$ $$\text{Volume (mL)} = N_{\text{drops}} \times 0.05\text{ mL/drop} = 2 \times 0.05 = 0.10\text{ mL}$$ $$\text{Dose (mg)} = \text{Volume (mL)} \times 10\text{ mg/mL} = 0.10 \times 10 = 1.00\text{ mg}$$ $$\text{Concentration} = \frac{\text{Dose (mg)}}{\text{Weight (kg)}} = \frac{1.00\text{ mg}}{1\text{ kg}} = 1.00\text{ mg/kg}$$
