Terra-Vet 200 (oxytetracycline injection) is a sterile, ready-to-use solution for the administration of the broad-spectrum antibiotic oxytetracycline (Terramycin) by injection.
Terra-Vet 200 administered to cattle or swine for the treatment of bacterial pneumonia at a dosage of 9 mg of oxytetracycline per lb of body weight has been demonstrated in clinical trials to be as effective as 2 or 3 repeated, daily treatments of oxytetracycline injectable at 3-5 mg/lb of body weight.
Terra-Vet 200 does not require refrigeration; however, it is recommended that it be stored at room temperature, 15o-25oC (59o-77oF). The antibiotic activity of oxytetracycline is not appreciably diminished in the presence of body fluids; serum, or exudates.
CAUTION: When administered to cattle, muscle discoloration may necessitate trimming of the injection site(s) and surrounding tissues during the dressing procedure.
WARNINGS: Discontinue treatment at least 28 days prior to slaughter of cattle and swine. Milk taken from animals during treatment and for 96 hours after the last treatment must not be used for food. Rapid intravenous administration may result in animal collapse. Oxytetracycline should be administered intravenously slowly over a period of at least 5 minutes.
