Dry Cow Long Acting Intramammary Suspension

Juraclox L.A. 600 Dry Cow Long Acting Intramammary Suspension is formulated for treatment of cows at drying off. The formulation and base provide effective concentrations of antibiotics in the udder for a period of seven weeks, to eliminate the majority of existing infections and to reduce substantially the incidence of new infections. The formulation is bactericidal, causing the death of organisms at the concentrations achieved in the udder tissues, and is non-irritant to the udder tissues. The extended period of 7 to 8 weeks antibiotic activity in the dry cow results from the relatively insoluble benzathine salt combined with the long acting base. The persistence of its activity makes this preparation unsuitable for use in lactating cows. It is presented in syringes for intramammary infusion and is designed to be used in the dairy cow at the point of drying off, that is, immediately after the last milking of the lactation.
