Q: Where is the best site for IM injections for estrous synchronization while in a BQA program?
|
|
A: Follow BQA guidelines and lable direction on the product being used. Because the product is an intramuscular injection, inject into a muscle in front of the shoulder (neck) using a 1.5 inch 18 gauge neeedle. I would suggest a 1.5 inch needle compared to a 1 inch needle, especially for cows to make sure the product is delivered into the muscle.
