Florfenicol 100 mg/ml
In pigs, a reduction in water intake and the following adverse reactions may occur during treatment: perianal and rectal erythema/edema, transient diarrhea, constipation with dark brown feces.
These reactions are transient and reversible.
Administration: orally via drinking water.
Pigs: 10 mg florfenicol/kg b.w./day, for 5 days respectively 0.10 ml product Florcrid/ kg b.w./ day.
The Amount of Florcrid Solution (AFS) can be calculated based on total body weight of herd to be treated (TBW) and the total water consumption of the herd in 24 hours (TWC) using formula:
10 = dose / kg b.w.
100 = mg florfenicol/ 1 ml Florcrid
Chickens (broilers): 30 mg florfenicol/ kg b.w./day, for 3 days respectively 0.30 ml product Florcrid /kg b.w./ day.
The Amount of Florcrid Solution (AFS) can be calculated based on total body weight of herd to be treated (TBW) and the total water consumption of the herd in 24 hours (TWC) using formula:
30 = dose / kg b.w.
100 = mg florfenicol/1 ml Florcrid
To ensure correct dosage, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible to avoid underdosing. The uptake of medicated water is dependant on the clinical condition of animals. In order to obtain the correct dosage, the concentration in drinking water may have to be adjusted. In case of insufficient intake of medicated water treatment plan should be revised.
Medicated water should be the only source of drinking water. Medicated drinking water should be prepared fresh every 24 hours.
If there are no signs of improvement during the treatment, the diagnosis should be reviewed and, if necessary, the treatment changed.
