If your ferret is ill or losing weight, check with your veterinarian before relying on a supplement.
How much Marshall Furo-Vite should I give my ferret each day?
Marshall bases the daily amount on body weight: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon for ferrets of 1/2 to 1 lb, 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon for 1 to 2 lb, 3/4 to 1 teaspoon for 2 to 4 lb, and 1 to 2 teaspoons for 4 to 6 lb.

The label also says to keep the tube out of reach of children and pets.
