AGRIMYCIN® 200 is intended for use in the treatment of the following diseases in beef cattle; dairy cattle; calves, including preruminating (veal) calves; and swine when due to oxytetracycline-susceptible organisms:

• Cattle: AGRIMYCIN® 200 is indicated in the treatment of pneumonia and shipping fever complex associated with Pasteurella spp. and Haemophilus spp.; infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (pinkeye) caused by Moraxella bovis; foot rot and diphtheria caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum; bacterial enteritis (scours) caused by Escherichia coli; wooden tongue caused by Actinobacillus lignieresii; leptospirosis caused by Leptospira pomona; and wound infections and acute metritis caused by strains of staphylococci and streptococci organisms sensitive to oxytetracycline.

• In sows, AGRIMYCIN® 200 is indicated as an aid in the control of infectious enteritis (baby pig scours, colibacillosis) in suckling pigs caused by Escherichia coli.

Directions: AGRIMYCIN 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.

Dosage:
Cattle: 4.5 ml subcut per 100 lbs body weight
Swine: 4.5 ml deep IM per 100 lbs body weight
96 hour milk withholding; 28 day slaughter withdrawal

AGRIMYCIN 200 does not require refrigeration; however, it is recommended that it be stored at room temperature, 15°-25°C (59°-77°F). 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.
Each mL contains 200 mg of oxytetracycline dihydrate.
