Baytril 100 is indicated for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) associated with Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Histophilus somni and Mycoplasma bovis in beef and non-lactating dairy cattle; and for the control of BRD in beef and non-lactating dairy cattle at high risk of developing BRD associated with M. haemolytica, P. multocida, H. somni and M. bovis.
Cattle – Multiple-Day Therapy: Baytril® 100 is indicated for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) associated with Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida and Histophilus somni in beef and non-lactating dairy cattle.
Swine: Baytril 100 is indicated for the treatment and control of swine respiratory disease (SRD) associated with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus parasuis, Streptococcus suis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. Baytril® 100 is indicated for the control of colibacillosis in groups or pens of weaned pigs where colibacillosis associated with Escherichia coli has been diagnosed.
Baytril Injection Dosage and Administration
Baytril 100 provides flexible dosages and durations of therapy.
Baytril 100 may be administered as a single dose for one day for treatment and control of BRD (cattle), for treatment and control of SRD or for control of colibacillosis (swine), or for multiple days for BRD treatment (cattle). Selection of the appropriate dose and duration of therapy for BRD treatment in cattle should be based on an assessment of the severity of the disease, pathogen susceptibility and clinical response.
Cattle:
Single-Dose Therapy (BRD Treatment): Administer, by subcutaneous injection, a single dose of 7.5-12.5 mg/kg of body weight (3.4-5.7 mL/100 lb).
Multiple-Day Therapy (BRD Treatment): Administer daily, a subcutaneous dose of 2.5-5 mg/kg of body weight (1.1-2.3 mL/100 lb). Treatment should be repeated at 24-hour intervals for three days. Additional treatments may be given on Days 4 and 5 to animals that have shown clinical improvement but not total recovery.
Single-Dose Therapy (BRD Control): Administer, by a subcutaneous injection, a single dose of 7.5 mg/kg of body weight (3.4 mL/100 lb). Examples of conditions that may contribute to calves being at high risk of developing BRD include, but are not limited to, the following:•Transportation with animals from two or more farm origins.•An extended transport time with few to no rest stops.•An environmental temperature change of ≥30°F during transportation.•A ≥30°F range in temperature fluctuation within a 24-hour period.•Exposure to wet or cold weather conditions.•Excessive shrink (more than would be expected with a normal load of cattle).•Stressful arrival processing procedures (e.g., castration or dehorning).•Exposure within the prior 72 hours to animals showing clinical signs of BRD.
Administered dose volume should not exceed 20 mL per injection site.
