Hexasol LA
Active substance
ATC code
Species
Cattle.
Indications
Specifically formulated to provide initial anti-inflammatory for 24-36 hours and sustained anti-bacterial activity for 5-6 days following a single administration.
Indicated primarily for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease associated with Mannheimia haemolytica where an anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic effect is required.
In addition, a wide range of organisms are known to be sensitive in vitro to oxytetracycline, including Pasteurella spp, Arcanobacterium pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus and certain mycoplasmas. The product may therefore be of use in the treatment of disease in cattle caused by such organisms where an anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effect is required.
Dose to be administered and administration route
Indicated for deep intramuscular administration to cattle. The recommended dosage is 1 ml per 10 kg bodyweight (equivalent to 2 mg/kg flunixin and 30 mg/kg oxytetracycline) on a single occasion.
Maximum volume per injection site: 15ml. If concurrent treatment is administered use a separate injection site.
Additional therapy with an NSAID may be administered after 24 hours if required.
Avoid the introduction of contamination.
Adverse reactions
The use of tetracyclines during the period of tooth and bone development, including late pregnancy, may lead to discolouration.
Although the product is well tolerated, occasionally a local reaction of a transient nature may be observed.
Hypersensitivity reactions (collapse) may occur very rarely. Such reactions may evolve to a more severe condition (anaphylaxis), which may be lifethreatening.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).
