Do not exceed stated dose or dose more frequently than three weekly. In sheep, liver levels of copper may be quite variable. Consequently, there is always a risk of copper poisoning (deaths) occurring following copper supplementation in this species.
Doses of 3 or more times those recommended can cause symptoms of levamisole toxicity so estimate liveweights carefully. Dehydrated animals may be more susceptible to toxicity. Fatal interactions may occur between levamisole and organophosphate dips.
