DESCRIPTION:
Tylosin is a macrolide antibiotic produced by a strain of Streptomyces fradiae, an actinomycete.
PROPERTIES:
– Tylosin is relatively nontoxic. – The oral LD50 in mice is greater than 5,000 mg/kg – Other studies in dogs and cats further substantiate the safety of this antibiotic. – Blood level studies have been conducted in cattle comparing injections of tylosin base to injections of aqueous solutions of tylosin tartrate. A longer duration of activity was evidenced with the injections of tylosin base. – Measurable blood levels of 22 hours duration can be expected in cattle with a single injection of the preparation at recommended doses. – Tylosin has an antibacterial spectrum that is essentially gram-positive, but it is also active against spirochetes, chlamydia, and certain gram-negative micro-organisms (not including coliforms). – It is extremely active against mycoplasma species.
