ACTIONS
Maxalac® DC Dry Cow Intramammary Antibiotic is a long-acting
intramammary cerate containing cephalonium, a semi-synthetic
cephalosporin antibiotic. It is formulated to give effective
antibiotic levels in the dry udder, and maintain these levels for up
to 10 weeks,
including the critical pre-calving period.
Maxalac® DC Dry Cow Intramammary Antibiotic is recommended for dry
cow therapy to treat existing sub-clinical infections and to prevent
new infections, which occur during the dry period. Infusion at drying
off should be part of a mastitis control program on the advice of your
veterinary surgeon and will reduce the risk of mastitis that may occur
at calving.
Cephalonium is a broad-spectrum, cephalosporin antibiotic which has
bactericidal activity against the majority of organisms associated
with
bovine mastitis. The antibacterial activity is not impaired in the
presence of milk.
Cephalonium is active against: _Staphylococcus aureus_ (including
penicillin resistant strains), _Streptococcus agalacatiae,
Streptococcus dysgalactiae, _
_Streptococcus uberis, Escherichia coli, Corynebacterium pyogenes,
_and _Corynebacterium ulcerans._ The antibiotic is also active against
other
organisms recovered from the bovine udder including _Proteus _spp.,_
Klebsiella _spp., _Citrobacter _spp., _and Enterobacter _strains.
INDICATIONS
For sustained, broad spectrum control of and protection against
mastitis-causing bacteria (including penicillin-resistant strains) in
non-lactating dairy cattle.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
DO NOT USE in lactating cows.
DO NOT USE in cows within 49 days of calving.
PRECAUTIONS
If accidentally administered within 49 days of calving or to a
lactating animal, contact your prescribing veterinarian for advice.
