My take: It's confusing because the dosage is in cc/ml, and the tablets are in mg/ml. Centigrams and milligrams. You need to move the decimal point on the dosage chart. For every 100 lbs, you need 227.3, or about one tablet. The big fella is 250, I'm thinking the 'dukester needs about 2 1/2 tablets -- and maybe a diet.
CC stands for 'cubic centimeter', not 'centigrams'.
Since 1 CC = 1 ml, the chart is saying that the units for the dose are either CC OR ml (which are equivalent), not CC PER ml.
The concentration of the drug is listed as mg PER ml, so in this case there is 100 mg of drug in each 1 ml of liquid. The chart then tells you that a 100 pound dog (the highest weight the chart shows) should receive 22.73 milliliters, or in other words, 22.73 cubic centimeters of the liquid formulation.
