Cattle:
Inject subcutaneously in the neck, a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg body weight (1.25 mL/50 kg). Care should be taken to dose accurately. Do not inject more than 10 mL per injection site. Most animals will respond to treatment within 3 to 5 days. If no improvement is observed, the diagnosis should be re-evaluated.

On Arrival Treatment:
Note: To limit the development of antimicrobial resistance, Draxxin Injectable Solution should only be used as an arrival treatment when: 1) BRD has been diagnosed and 2) calves are at “high risk” of developing BRD. One or more of the following factors typically characterizes calves at “high risk” of developing BRD. Cattle are from multiple farm origins, and/or cattle have extended transport times (that may have included few if any rest stops), and/or ambient temperature change(s) from origin to arrival of 17°C or more, and/or animals have had continued exposure to extremely wet and cold weather conditions, and/or cattle have experienced excessive shrink or stressful processing procedures such as castration and dehorning.

Swine:
With the use of an automatic dosing syringe, inject intramuscularly in the neck, a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg body weight (0.25 mL/10 kg). Do not inject more than 2.5 mL per injection site. Most animals will respond to treatment within 3 to 5 days. If no improvement is observed, the diagnosis should be re-evaluated.

Note:
To limit the development of antimicrobial resistance, Draxxin Injectable Solution should only be used for control of SRD when segregation and treatment of individual sick animals is unlikely to control the disease outbreak. Veterinarians should make treatment decision by considering among others overall farm management and outbreak associated factors.
