Non-toxic solution

Blue coloured for easy identification

Thoroughly clean and disinfect the teat end with an appropriate disinfectant before treatment. Gently insert the tube into the teat canal and slowly infuse the entire contents of the tube into the affected quarter. Massage the udder gently for 1-2 minutes after treatment to distribute the antibiotic throughout the mammary gland. Always follow the specific milk and meat withholding periods listed on the product label before selling or consuming milk and meat from treated animals. Tips: Culture milk samples before treatment where possible to identify the causative organism and ensure you're using the most effective antibiotic. Always use the complete tube contents — do not attempt partial treatments, as this increases antibiotic resistance risk. Keep detailed treatment records including date, cow ID, quarter treated, product used, and withholding period expiry.
