COMPOSITION
Contains per g: 720 mg
DESCRIPTION
Neomycin is a broad-spectrum bactericidal aminoglycoside antibiotic, acting bacteriostatic in low concentrations and bactericidal in high concentrations. Neomycin acts against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Neomycin when administered orally, only a fraction (<5%) is absorbed systemically, the remainder remains as the active compound in the gastro-intestinal tract of the animal. Neomycin is not inactivated by enzymes or food. These pharmacological properties lead to neomycin being an efficacious antibiotic in the prevention and treatment of enteric infections caused by bacteria sensitive to neomycin.
INDICATIONS
Neomycin 30% WSP is effective in the treatment of intestinal infections in calves, sheep, goats, swine and poultry. Neomycin is effective against various causative agents of diseases like Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Pasteurella, Staphylococci and Listeria spp. When applied orally it will be poorly absorbed in the digestive tract, except in case of severe enteritis.
CONTRA-INDICATIONS
Do not administer to animals with an impaired kidney or liver function. Neomycin allergy can be noticed. Do not use in animals in lactation if milk is intended for human consumption. Do not use in layers producing eggs for human consumption. Do not use in pregnant animals.
SIDE EFFECTS
Sense of hearing and equilibrium can be affected. Kidney damage and neuro-muscular blockage may occur. Long-term treatment may result in complications due to vitamin B and K deficiencies, caused by disturbances in the microbiological digestion
