Winter is a high incidence period of diseases, such as epidemic diarrhea, No. 5 disease, respiratory diseases and other common diseases, among which respiratory diseases are emerging in an endless stream, repeated, small retail, large-scale pig farms can not be eliminated.

In the consultation we received from our customers, most pig farms said that their medicines were not good if they were also used. The history of medication was nothing more than florfenicol, telmicosin, tylosin, tamiao and so on. How to use it? Some single addition, use of the combination of use, in spite of whether the medication program is reasonable, the simple choice of florfenicol when the edge water here is very deep.

The effect is not good. Further understanding, it turns out that there is cat grease in it. The content of florfenicol in the market is 2%, 10%, 20% and 30%. If we do not pay attention to the content of specifications, according to the so-called experience, blindly use drugs, the effect is not ideal.

In fact, 2% and 10% of florfenicol can also be used, but it is limited to piggery management and preventive use in peacetime. If it is not blindly used according to the drug content, the dosage is not enough, it can not achieve the desired effect.

In view of this problem, I would like to briefly explain the main points of the clinical use of florfenicol.

Florfenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. Many pig farms choose to use florfenicol soluble when disease occurs.* However, some pig farms like to use it regardless of disease, group or stage* Sometimes, a large dose of florfenicol is used to treat or prevent swine diseases. Sometimes the dosage is very small, in fact, it is wrong to do so.

[usage and dosage] take orally, once a week, body weight 20 1kg / 30mg per day, 2 times a day for 3~5 days. According to florfenil, 800-1200 g of feed per ton is needed.

Notes for clinical use:

First, the hidden danger of using too much or too little dose. Some of them were administered 400 mg/kg by mixed feeding and 40-100 mg/kg by injection, even higher. Some are as small as 8-15 mg/kg. In this way, it will be easy to poison if the dosage is large, but ineffective if the dosage is small.

Secondly, the compatibility of clinical use is not right. Is it scientific and reasonable that florfenicol is often used in combination with sulfonamides and cephalosporins?

Thirdly, if you look at the broad-spectrum effect of the instructions, you can only use drugs, but the results are not satisfactory.

Finally, for sows, it is best not to use it before pregnancy, but to choose drugs during empty pregnancy or at the end of pregnancy.
