Product Description
Penstrep 2020 Suspension combines procaine penicillin G and dihydrostreptomycin to provide broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against many important livestock pathogens.
Procaine penicillin G mainly targets Gram-positive bacteria through bactericidal activity, while dihydrostreptomycin helps improve antibacterial coverage against Gram-negative organisms. The combination may act additively or synergistically in practical veterinary treatment.
On many livestock farms, respiratory and gastrointestinal disease outbreaks often increase during transportation stress, overcrowding, sudden weather changes, poor ventilation, or weak sanitation management.
Long-acting antibiotic suspensions are widely used because they help improve treatment convenience and practical disease control in commercial livestock production systems.
