Panacur paste v panacur liquid

I have been reading some old threads about panacur liquid which says the dose is 0.2ml/kg so 2kg Marley would need 0.4ml daily.
Does that therefore mean that I can get 250 doses from each 100ml bottle or are my maths wrong? That seems a lot cheaper than the paste.

He has already had a 28 day course of panacur paste with no improvement of his head tilt and the vet said it would do not harm to continue for another month so just looking at the options.
 
I always use the Panacur 10% Liquid giving a dose of 0.2ml/kg/day for 28 days

Yes, it is a lot cheaper and it is also easier to get an accurate weight related dose :)

It is just that the Liquid is not licensed for Rabbits. This does not mean it is unsafe. It has exactly the same active ingredient in it (Fenbendazole) as the paste.
