Indication:
For the Control and Treatment of the Following Diseases in Swine: Bacterial enteritis caused by Escherichia coli and Salmonella choleraesuis, susceptible to oxytetracycline. Bacterial pneumonia caused by Pasteurella multocida, susceptible to oxytetracycline.
For Breeding Swine: Leptospirosis (reducing the incidence of abortions and sheddign leptospira) caused by Leptospira pomona, susceptible to oxytetracycline.
Directions
Mix fresh solutions daily. Use as a sole source of drinking water. Do not mix this product directly with milk or milk replacers. Administer one hour before or two hours after feeding milk or milk replacers. Consult a poultry diagnostic laboratory or poultry pathologist for diagnosis and advice on dosage for chickens and turkeys. As a generalization, 200 chickens will drink one gallon of water per day for each week of age. Turkeys will consume twice that amount. Administer 7 to 14 days to chickens and turkeys and up to 5 days to swine.
Note: The concentration of drug required in medicated water must be adequate to compensate for variation in the age of the animal, feed consumption rate, and the environmental temperature and humidity, each of which affects water consumption.
