ADMINISTRATION

• Cattle (calves under 1 month of age): Treatment of diarrhea caused or complicated by E. coli. It is available as an injectable intravenous solution and a water-soluble powder formulation.
• Swine: Treatment of diarrhea caused or complicated by E. coli.
• Dogs: Treatment of infections caused by E. coli and other Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms, including infectious tracheobronchitis.

• Medicated Drinking Water (Herd Treatment): For herd or flock treatments (e.g., in swine and poultry), the powder is dissolved in the drinking water supply.
  • Preparation: The required amount of powder is mixed vigorously with water to ensure complete dissolution, usually in a stock solution first, and then diluted to the final concentration in the main water supply.
  • Important Considerations:
    • The medicated water must be the sole source of drinking water for the treatment duration to ensure the animals receive the correct dose.
    • Fresh solutions must be prepared daily, as the product’s stability in water is limited (e.g., typically 24 hours).
    • Water intake should be monitored to confirm adequate consumption.
    • Do not mix with water containing chlorine or hydrogen peroxide, as these agents can degrade the active substance.
• Oral Drench/Suspension (Individual Treatment): For individual treatment of animals (e.g., calves, swine), the powder can be mixed with water, milk, or milk replacer to form an oral suspension or drench.
  • Preparation: The powder is mixed with the specified liquid according to the product directions.
  • Important Considerations:
    • Ensure the entire dose is swallowed by the animal.
    • Medicated milk replacer solutions should be consumed within 1 hour of preparation.
