Indications
Pre-ruminant cattle:
Colibacillosis
Treatment of gastro-intestinal infections caused by Escherichia coli susceptible to paromomycin.
Cryptosporidiosis
Treatment of infections caused by diagnosed Cryptosporidium parvum, by reduction of diarrhoea and reduction of faecal oocyst shedding. Administration has to start within 24 hours after the onset of diarrhoea.
Pigs:
Colibacillosis
Treatment of gastro-intestinal infections caused by Escherichia coli susceptible to paromomycin.
Dose to be administered and administration route
Oral use.
To ensure a correct dosage bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible.
Cattle (pre-ruminant cattle):
Colibacillosis
Duration of treatment: 3-5 days.
Administration in milk/milk replacer.
Recommended dosage: 1.25 – 2.5 ml of veterinary medicinal product/10 kg BW/day, equivalent to 17500 - 35000 IU of paromomycin per kg BW/day (i.e. approximately 25-50 mg paromomycin sulfate per kg BW/day).
Cattle (newborn calves):
Cryptosporidiosis
Duration of treatment: 5 days.
Administration in milk/milk replacer or directly in the mouth using either a syringe or an appropriate device for oral administration.
Recommended dosage: 7.5 ml of veterinary medicinal product/10 kg BW/day for 5 consecutive days, i.e. 105000 IU of paromomycin per kg BW/day for 5 consecutive days (i.e. approximately 150 mg paromomycin sulfate per kg BW/day).
In case of insufficient uptake of milk, the totality of the remaining solution should be administered orally directly into the mouth of the animal.
Pigs:
Colibacillosis
Duration of treatment: 3-5 days.
Administration in drinking water.
Recommended dosage: 1.25 – 2 ml of veterinary medicinal product/10 kg BW/day, equivalent to 17500 - 28000 IU of paromomycin per kg BW/day (i.e. approximately 25-40 mg paromomycin sulfate per kg BW/day).
For the administration through the drinking water the exact daily amount of veterinary medicinal product should be based on the number of the animals to be treated, and the recommended dose calculated according to the following formula:
The uptake of medicated water depends on several factors including clinical conditions of the animals and the local conditions such as ambient temperature and humidity. In order to obtain the correct dosage, uptake of drinking water has to be monitored and the concentration of paromomycin has to be adjusted accordingly.
Medicated drinking water/milk/milk replacer and any stock solutions should be freshly prepared every 6 hours (in milk/milk replacer) or every 24 hours (in water).
Adverse reactions
In rare occasions soft faeces have been observed.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports)
Aminoglycoside antibiotics such as paromomycin can cause oto- and nephrotoxicity.
