Product Description
Tilmicosin Injection 30% contains tilmicosin, a macrolide-class veterinary antibiotic with strong antibacterial activity against respiratory pathogens commonly found in livestock production systems.
Tilmicosin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, helping control respiratory and soft tissue infections caused by susceptible microorganisms.
On many livestock farms, respiratory disease outbreaks often increase during transportation stress, overcrowding, poor ventilation, sudden weather changes, or weak farm sanitation systems.
Tilmicosin products are widely used in commercial cattle and sheep production because of their long-acting activity and practical effectiveness against respiratory pathogens and foot infections.
