For the treatment and metaphylaxis of respiratory diseases caused by bacteria susceptible to florfenicol and those associated with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Pasteurella multocida.
Florfenicol 40 mg/g
Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substance.
Do not administer to boars intended for breeding.
In pigs, the following side effects may occur during treatment: perianal and rectal erythema / edema, transient diarrhea, constipation with dark brown stools. These reactions are transient and reversible.
To be administered orally, in feeding stuffs.
Pigs: a dose of 15 mg active substance / kg body weight / day, (equivalent to 0.35 g product / kg body weight / day), for 5 consecutive days.
The amount of Florcrid 40 mg / g (AF) will be calculated based on the Total Body Weight (TBW) of the herd to be treated and the Total Feed Consumption (TFC) of the herd in 24 hours using the formula:
per 1000 kg feed
15 = dose (mg)/ kg b.w./day.
40 = mg of florfenicol/1 g Florcrid 40 mg/g premix
The maximum incorporation rate is 12.5 kg / ton (500 ppm of florfenicol). Higher incorporation rates can lead to poor palatability and decreased food consumption.
To ensure a correct dose, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible to avoid under-dosing. The intake of medicated premix depends on the clinical condition of the animals.
The medicated feeding stuff should be the only source of food.
If no improvement in clinical signs is observed during treatment, the diagnosis should be reviewed and treatment modified.
Pigs (meat and offal): 17 days.

Official, national and regional antimicrobial policies will be considered when using the product.
Use of the product deviating from the instructions in the SPC may increase the risk of development and selection of florfenicol-resistant bacteria and decrease the effectiveness of treatment with other amphenicols due to the potential for cross-resistance.
