DESCRIPTION:
Hexasol™ Injection is a sterile, pre-constituted solution of the broad-spectrum antibiotic oxytetracycline dihydrate and the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) flunixin meglumine. Each mL contains 300 mg of oxytetracycline base as amphoteric oxytetracycline; 20 mg of flunixin base as flunixin meglumine, 40% (v/v) glycerol formal, 10% (v/v) polyethylene glycol 200, 2.7% (w/v) magnesium oxide, 0.4% (w/v) sodium formaldehyde sulphoxylate (as a preservative) and monoethanolamine (as required to adjust pH).
INDICATIONS:
For the treatment of bacterial pneumonia associated with Pasteurella spp. and for the control of associated pyrexia in beef and non-lactating dairy cattle.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
Administer Hexasol Injection once as an intramuscular or subcutaneous injection of 1 mL per 22 lb body weight (13.6 mg oxytetracycline and 0.9 mg flunixin per lb BW). Do not administer more than 10 mL per injection site (1 to 2 mL per site in small calves). Hexasol Injection is recommended where retreatment of calves and yearlings is impractical due to husbandry conditions, such as cattle on range, or where their repeated restraint is inadvisable.
