KEPRO COLISTIN 4800 WSP 100g

1,400.00

COMPOSITION:

Contains per g:
Colistin (as sulphate) 4,800,000 IU

DESCRIPTION:

Colistin 4800 wsp is a creamy-white powder, freely and completely mixable with water and therefore suitable for all types of drinking water systems. Colistin is a cyclic polypeptide antibiotic and has a bactericidal action against selected Gram-negative bacteria. The first bacterial effect of colistin is a blockade of the cell division of bacteria, followed by a secondary progressive lysis. Susceptible bacteria are Aerobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Haemophilus spp., Pasteurella spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Vibrio spp. and paracolon bacteria (MIC values < 5 mcg/ml). Some Pseudomonas species may be primary resistant. Colistin sulphate is hardly absorbed after oral administration (less than 1% of the administered dose) and therefore remains active only in the gastrointestinal tract.

INDICATIONS:

Colistin 4800 wsp is indicated for treatment of gastrointestinal infections in calves, lambs, kids and poultry, caused by bacteria susceptible to colistin, particularly Colibacillosis and Salmonellosis.

CONTRA-INDICATIONS:

Do not administer to animals hypersensitive to polymycins. Do not use for treatment of infections caused by resistant micro-organisms. Do not administer to animal species not listed under the indications, especially with an active rumen and intestinal microbial flora.

SIDE EFFECTS:

None.
