can you give epinephrine to horses having anaphylaxis? If so, how much, 1:1000 or 1:10,000, and where to give it.

Hello Michelle
The treatment for anaphylaxis including dosages and administration are explained at, Diseases of Horses » Respiratory System » Anaphylactic Shock. When looking for an article don't forget to try the search form on this (and every) page which is designed to bring the articles to near the top of the list. I bring this up because the information here might be time critical and waiting for a response not a good option.
