Injection Solution
DESCRIPTION:
A homogenous, transparent solution from light yellow to light brown color.
COMPOSITION:
1 ml of product contains an active agent:
Enrofloxacin – 100 mg.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:
The active ingredient of the drug – enrofloxacin, belongs to the fluoroquinolone group of antibiotics and has a broad spectrum of activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Its mechanism of action is based on the inhibition of bacterial gyrase enzyme, leading to disruption of bacterial DNA replication.
Enrofloxacin exhibits bactericidal activity against the following microorganisms: E. coli, Pseudomonas spp., Salmonella spp., Campylobacter spp., Haemophilus spp., Pasteurella spp., Bordetella spp., Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae, Klebsiella spp., Proteus spp., Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus spp., Clostridium perfringens, Actinobacillus spp., Fusobacterium spp., Enterococcus spp. and others, as well as the detrimental effect on mycoplasmas (Mycoplasma spp.) and chlamydia (Chlamydia spp.).
After injection enrofloxacin is rapidly and completely absorbed due to its high bioavailability. Its maximum blood concentration is reached after 6 hours, therapeutic concentration is maintained in 2 days.
Enrofloxacin is partially metabolized in the liver and is excreted with the urine and bile.
Enrofloxacin has a high level of distribution. Thus, concentrations in tissues and organs usually higher than in blood serum. The bodies, which can be observed the highest concentration – lungs, liver, kidneys, intestines.
The half-life period depends on the type of animal and reaches 2-7 hours.
APPLICATION:
Cattle: treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and respiratory system caused by microorganisms sensitive to enrofloxacin, secondary bacterial infections in viral diseases.
