DOSAGE ADMINISTRATION:

Baytril^® provides flexible dosages and durations of therapy.

Baytril^® 100 may be administered as a single dose for one day for treatment and control of BRD (cattle) and SRD (swine), or for multiple days for BRD treatment (cattle). Selection of the appropriate dose and duration of therapy for BRD treatment in cattle should be based on an assessment of the severity of the disease, pathogen susceptibility and clinical response.

Baytril^® 100 - 500 mL: Do not enter the vial with a needle more than 30 times or enter the vial with a dosage delivery device more than 4 times. Any product remaining after these maximum number of entries should be discarded.

Cattle:
Single-Dose Therapy (BRD Treatment): Administer once, a subcutaneous dose of 7.5-12.5 mg/kg of body weight (3.4-5.7 mL/100 lb).

Multiple-Day Therapy (BRD Treatment): Administer daily, a subcutaneous dose of 2.5-5 mg/kg of body weight (1.1-2.3 mL/100 lb). Treatment should be repeated at 24-hour intervals for three days. Additional treatments may be given on Days 4 and 5 to animals that have shown clinical improvement but not total recovery.

Single-Dose Therapy (BRD Control): Administer once, a subcutaneous dose of 7.5 mg/kg of body weight (3.4 mL/100 lb). Examples of conditions that may contribute to calves being at high risk of developing BRD include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Transportation with animals from two or more farm origins.
• An extended transport time with few to no rest stops.
• An environmental temperature change of 30^°F during transportation.
• 30^°F range in temperature fluctuation within a 24-hour period.
• Exposure to wet or cold weather conditions.
• Excessive shrink (more than would be expected with a normal load of cattle).
• Stressful arrival processing procedures (e.g., castration or dehorning).
• Exposure within the prior 72 hours to animals showing clinical signs of BRD.
Administered dose volume should not exceed 20 mL per injection site.

For Subcutaneous use In Beef Cattle, Non-Lactating Dairy Cattle And Swine Only

Not For Use In Female Dairy Cattle 20 Months Of Age Or Older Or In Calves To Be Processed For Veal

RESIDUE WARNINGS:
Cattle: Animals intended for human consumption must not be slaughtered within 28 days from the last treatment. This product is not approved for female dairy cattle 20 months of age or older, including dry dairy cows. Use in these cattle may cause drug residues in milk and/or in calves born to these cows. A withdrawal period has not been established for this product in pre-ruminating calves. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal.

Swine: Animals intended for human consumption must not be slaughtered within 5 days of receiving a single-injection dose.

HUMAN WARNINGS:
Not for use in humans. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes. In case of dermal contact, wash skin with soap and water. Consult a physician if irritation persists following ocular or dermal exposures. Individuals with a history of hypersensitivity to quinolones should avoid this product. In humans, there is a risk of user photosensitization within a few hours after excessive exposure to quinolones. If excessive accidental exposure occurs, avoid direct sunlight. For customer service or to obtain product information, including a Material Safety Data Sheet, call 1-800-633-3796. For medical emergencies or to report adverse reactions, call 1-800-422-9874.

PRECAUTIONS:
The effects of enrofloxacin on cattle or swine reproductive performance, pregnancy and lactation have not been adequately determined. The long-term effects on articular joint cartilage have not been determined in pigs above market weight.

Subcutaneous injection can cause a transient local tissue reaction that may result in trim loss of edible tissue at slaughter. Baytril^® 100 contains different excipients than other Baytril^® products. The safety and efficacy of this formulation in species other than cattle and swine have not been determined.

Quinolone-class drugs should be used with caution in animals with known or suspected Central Nervous System (CNS) disorders. In such animals, quinolones have, in rare instances, been associated with CNS stimulation which may lead to convulsive seizures.

Quinolone-class drugs have been shown to produce erosions of cartilage of weight-bearing joints and other signs of arthropathy in immature animals of various species. See Animal Safety section for additional information.
