Chinese wholesale Vitamin C Soluble Powder - Anntibiotic Flofenicol Oral Powder 10% for livestock and Poultry – Joycome

Description

Florfenicol is a synthetic broad-spectrum antibiotic that is effective against most Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria isolated from domestic animals. Florfenicol, a fluorinated derivative of chloramphenicol, acts by inhibiting protein synthesis at the ribosomal level and is bacteriostatic.
Florfenicol does not carry the risk of inducing human aplastic anaemia that is associated with the use of chloramphenicol, and also has activity against some chloramphenicol-resistant strains of bacteria.

Indications

In fattening pigs:
For the treatment of swine respiratory disease in individual pigs due to Pasteurella multocida susceptible to florfenicol.

Do not use in boars intended for breeding purposes.
Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients.
