I am not a vet. This is just from my experience.

The shot that my girls were given, here in Washington state by the vet at
VetSmart, was "Human Ganaditropen". Not sure of the spelling. I do not
remember the dose, though. I'm sure that someone here, can give you the
correct dose.

And My vet in Fayetteville, North Carolina, 15 years ago, gave them, "feline
ganaditropen", tablets. I was to give my girls, "1/8th", of a tablet.
