Guest guest Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Hi Helen, Thanks so very much. I started him yesterday on 2.5 mls. I hope you don't mind me asking, is small for his age? Because is only 3 1/2 and weighs 36 pounds! Are you using Spatone and seeing any results with it? Merry Christmas to you and to . Darla xx Hi DarlaWe are in the same boat here. Have got the Sytron but not used it yet. is 8 yrs old and weighs about 44 lbs. Dose for him is 4ml, three times a day. Hope that helps .
