Baytril10% Injectable Solution
A5581 RVM
Active Constituents:
Enrofloxacin 10% in a solution for injection. Available in 50mL bottles.
Action:
Baytril inhibits the enzyme DNA gyrase which plays a major role in the replication of the DNA. Inhibition of this enzyme leads to functional disturbances with blockage of certain stages in synthesis, resulting in death of the bacterium. This mode of action rules out cross resistance between Baytril and other anti-bacterials commonly used in veterinary medicine.

Indiscriminate use of antibiotics may lead to the development of resistance. Baytril should not be used for routine preventive purposes and should be used in individual animals in line with the above recommendations. Treatment of groups of food producing animals is only recommended when culture and sensitivity testing indicate Baytril is the only product likely to be effective. Susceptibility testing is recommended where feasible.
