BIAOXY 1000 OXYTETRACYCLINE

Description

Biaoxy 1000 – Oxytetracycline Antibiotic for Pigs and Poultry

Biaoxy 1000 is an oxytetracycline antibiotic formulated for pigs and poultry. It is indicated for the treatment of infectious diseases caused by microorganisms that are susceptible to oxytetracycline.

Infectious diseases can spread quickly through intensive livestock and poultry production systems, affecting animal health, growth, feed efficiency, and overall farm profitability. Appropriate diagnosis and timely treatment of susceptible bacterial infections are important for reducing disease impact and supporting recovery.

Supports Respiratory Disease Management

Biaoxy 1000 is indicated for several important respiratory infections affecting pigs and poultry. These include:

• Atrophic rhinitis
• Enzootic pneumonia
• Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD)

Respiratory infections can cause coughing, nasal discharge, breathing difficulties, reduced appetite, poor growth, and increased susceptibility to secondary infections. Managing susceptible bacterial infections can help reduce these effects and support healthier animals.

Helps Control Secondary Bacterial Infections

Viral, environmental, or other primary disease challenges can sometimes leave animals vulnerable to secondary bacterial infections. Biaoxy 1000 can be used where these secondary infections involve microorganisms susceptible to oxytetracycline.

Early veterinary assessment can help determine whether antimicrobial treatment is appropriate and identify the likely causative organisms.

Gastrointestinal Infection Support

Biaoxy 1000 is also indicated for gastrointestinal infections, including:

• Enteritis
• P.I.D.
• Post-weaning diarrhoea

Digestive infections can result in diarrhoea, reduced feed intake, dehydration, poor growth, and production losses. Appropriate management combines veterinary treatment with good nutrition, hygiene, water quality, and effective farm biosecurity.

Responsible Antibiotic Use

Biaoxy 1000 should only be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions and veterinary recommendations. Not all respiratory or gastrointestinal diseases are bacterial, so accurate diagnosis is important before antibiotic treatment.

Follow the recommended dose, treatment duration, precautions, and applicable withdrawal periods. Responsible antimicrobial use also helps reduce the development of antibiotic resistance.
