The oral powder is for use in individual pigs on farms where only a small number of pigs are to receive the medicine. Larger groups should be treated with medicated feeding stuff containing the premix.

The dosage is 2.125 mg tylvalosin per kg bodyweight per day in-feed for 7 consecutive days. Secondary infection by organisms such as Pasteurella multocida and Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae may complicate enzootic pneumonia and require specific medication.

The dosage is 4.25 mg tylvalosin per kg bodyweight per day for 10 consecutive days.

The dosage is 4.25 mg tylvalosin per kg bodyweight per day for 10 consecutive days. This is achieved by thoroughly mixing Aivlosin 8.5 mg/g Oral Powder into the daily ration for each individual pig. Scoops of 2 sizes are provided for measuring the correct amount of Aivlosin 8.5 mg/g Oral Powder for mixing with the daily ration, according to the schedule below. The feed containing the oral powder should be provided as the sole ration for the periods recommended above.

The pig to be treated should be weighed and the amount of feed that the pig is likely to consume should be estimated, based on a daily feed intake equivalent to 5% of bodyweight. Consideration must be given to pigs whose daily feed intake is reduced or restricted. The correct quantity of Aivlosin 8.5 mg/g Oral Powder should then be added to the estimated quantity of daily ration for each pig, in a bucket or similar receptacle, and thoroughly mixed.

The product should only be added to dry non-pelleted feed.

NB: A level scoop of the product should be measured.

Acute cases and severely diseased pigs with reduced food or water intake should be treated with a suitable injectable product. In addition to medical treatment, good management and hygiene practices should be established on the farm in order to reduce the risk of infection and to control the potential development of resistance.
