 There seems to be quite a wide variation. 
 I use 0.3mg per kg once daily which is 3x the dog maintenance dose. So, using the dosing syringe a 2kg rabbit would have a 6kg dog</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>Re: Metacam dose in rabbits</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/77621?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Nov 2012 08:49:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:3ee3f2ed-edfd-4753-8d9f-da1a13af0fb7</guid><dc:creator>james herriot lied</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;0.3-0.6mg/kg, which means pretty much everybody gets 0.5mg/kg, oral or injectable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;GPs up to about 1mg/kg, and small rodents 1-2mg/kg.&lt;/p&gt;
