Boehringer Ingelheim Bio-Mycin 200 (Oxytetracycline) Injection

Bio-Mycin 200 (Oxytetracycline) contains the antibiotic oxytetracycline, which is effective against a wide variety of infections, including pinkeye, bovine respiratory disease, foot rot and more. The formula also contains Select Carrier to help minimize cattle discomfort during injection. Bio-Mycin 200 is FDA approved, sterile and ready to use on beef and dairy cattle.How it Works

Oxytetracycline interferes with bacterial ability to produce proteins essential to growth. When these proteins are not present, bacteria can no longer grow and multiply. Therefore, oxytetracycline stops infection from spreading, and any remaining bacteria will then ultimately die or be killed by the animal's immune system.

Special Precautions

Keep away from children and animals. Exceeding the highest recommended dosage level of drug per pound of body weight per day, administering more than the recommended number of treatments and/or exceeding 10 mL intramuscularly or subcutaneously per injection site in adult beef and dairy cattle may result in antibiotic residues beyond the withdrawal period.

Overdose Information

Contact your nearest emergency animal hospital.

Side Effects

At the first sign of any adverse reaction, discontinue use of product and seek the advice of your veterinarian. Reports of adverse reactions associated with oxytetracycline administration include injection site swelling, restlessness, ataxia, trembling, swelling of eyelids, ears, muzzle, anus and vulva (or scrotum and sheath in males), respiratory abnormalities (labored breathing), frothing at the mouth, collapse and possibly death. Some of these reactions may be attributed either to anaphylaxis (an allergic reaction) or to cardiovascular collapse of unknown cause.
