Oral Solution
For vet. use only
Composition :
Per ml. Aqueous Solution Contains
Tiamulin Hydrogen Fumarate 125 mg.
Properties:
Tiamulin is usually a bacteriostatic antibiotic, but can be bactericidal in very high concentrations against susceptible organisms. The drug acts by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, thereby inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis.
Tiamulin has good activity against many gram positive cocci, including most Staphylococci and
Streptococci (not group D streps). It also has good activity against Mycoplasma and spirochetes.
With the exception of Haemophilus sp. and some E. coli and Klebsiella strains, the drug’s activity
is quite poor against gram negative organisms.
Indications:
Pigs: Treatment of swine dysentery caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and complicated by Fusobacterium and Bacteroides spp.
Broiler Chickens: Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD) : caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum
Turkeys: Infectious Sinusitis caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum

Tiamulin should not be administered to animals having access to feeds containing polyether ionophores (e.g., monensin, lasalocid, narasin, or salinomycin) as adverse reactions may occur. Not for use in swine over 250 pounds. Teratogenicity studies done in rodents demonstrated no teratogenic effects at doses up to 300 mg/kg. The manufacturer has concluded that the drug is not tumorigenic, carcinogenic, teratogenic or mutagenic.
