TARGET SPECIES

INDICATIONS
For the treatment and prevention of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) associated with Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida and Histophilus somni sensitive to tildipirosin.
The presence of the disease in the herd should be confirmed before preventive treatment.
DOSAGE FOR EACH SPECIES
Administer 4 mg tildipirosin/kg body weight (equivalent to 1 ml/45 kg body weight) once only.
METHOD AND ROUTE OF ADMINISTRATION
Subcutaneous use.
ADVICE ON CORRECT ADMINISTRATION
ZUPREVO is used for treatment of cattle over 450 kg body weight, divide the dose so that no more than 10 ml are injected at one site.
The rubber stopper of the vial may be safely punctured up to 20 times.
Otherwise, the use of a multiple-dose syringe is recommended.
To ensure correct dosage and to avoid underdosing, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.
It is recommended to treat animals in the early stages of the disease and to evaluate the response to treatment within 2 to 3 days after injection. If clinical signs of respiratory disease persist or increase, treatment should be changed using another antibiotic and continued until clinical signs have resolved.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Do not use ZUPREVO in case of hypersensitivity to macrolide antibiotics, citric acid monohydrate or propylene glycol.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
Pain on injection and injection site swellings are very common in treated animals.
Following the maximum recommended injection site volume of 10 ml, injection site swellings may be associated with pain on palpation for about one day in individual animals.
The swellings are transient and will usually resolve within 7 to 16 days; in individual animals swellings may persist for 21 days.
Pathomorphological injection site reactions will largely resolve within 35 days.
