Assuming that 8 oz per day of 10 PPM fine-particle silver is a tested dose for humans-Bruce Marx has been taking that amount for over 8 years---and, that horses respond to CS in a similar manner to humans, then apply the following formula:
8/175 = X/Weight of horse. For a 500 lb horse: about 22 oz/day. The more divided the doses, the more consistent the blood levels; i.e. Two would be better than one, and so on. That is, 22/number of daily doses. I would monitor for diarrhea, and lower the dose if diarrhea occurs. A more conservative approach would be to give half that amount and slowly increase. How to administer? Perhaps let the horse go a bit thirsty, and give the silver in a small amount drinking water, then provide lots of water. Probably best before meals. Can you squirt stuff down a horses throat with a syringe? Sounds difficult to me. Remember, this is just my lay opinion, and is not qualified by anything. Good luck.

More specifically, in treating horses. I am about to = begin a trial on a horse with post surgical infection. Your help is both needed and appreciated.
