I am going to use melatonin to help ease some of the symptoms with an
adrenal male ferret who has already had two adrenal surgeries this year.
He has part on one adrenal left and the tumor keeps growing back near
the vena cava. I know another surgery will eventually be needed, but I
want to give him a little time before he undergoes another surgery which
still may not get all of it, or take the risks of completing the
bi-lateral. For the time being he is getting his shot of Lupron this
week and I want to supplement the melatonin as well. The bottle comes
with a dropper, but there are no measurements. I do have some syringes
with measurements but they are all in ml. The dosages I have seen
posted are in mg. If weight matters, he is about 2.75 pounds.
Can anyone tell me what dosage of LIQUID Melatonin to give him in ml?
Thanks Diane Wall
