Procaine penicillin & dihydrostreptomycin veterinary injectable suspension combats bacterial infections in livestock/poultry (e.g., pneumonia, mastitis). Given IM/SC (20k-40k U/kg penicillin for livestock), it requires dissolution, warns of local irritation/ototoxicity, and needs veterinary prescription with withdrawal period compliance.
Procaine Penicillin & Dihydrostreptomycin Injectable Suspension for Veterinary
I. Basic Drug Information
Composition:
Procaine Penicillin: A long-acting penicillin that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis.
Dihydrostreptomycin: An aminoglycoside antibiotic that suppresses bacterial protein synthesis.
Dosage Form: Injectable suspension, to be dissolved before intramuscular or subcutaneous injection.
II. Pharmacological Action
Procaine penicillin is effective against Gram-positive bacteria (e.g., Streptococcus, Staphylococcus) with prolonged action.
Dihydrostreptomycin targets Gram-negative bacteria (e.g., E. coli, Salmonella) and some Gram-positive bacteria.
The combination expands the antibacterial spectrum, suitable for mixed infections in animals.
III. Indications (Veterinary Use)
Treats bacterial infections sensitive to penicillin and dihydrostreptomycin in livestock and poultry, including:
Livestock: Pneumonia, mastitis, endometritis, septicemia in cattle, sheep, and pigs.
Poultry: Colibacillosis, salmonellosis, chronic respiratory disease in chickens and ducks.
Other conditions: Wound infections, cellulitis, brucellosis (under veterinary guidance).
IV. Dosage and Administration (Veterinary Example, Follow Veterinary Advice)
Intramuscular/Subcutaneous Injection:
Livestock: 20,000-40,000 units/kg (based on penicillin) once, 1-2 times daily, for 3-5 days.
Poultry: 10,000-20,000 units/kg (based on penicillin) once daily, for 2-3 days.
Note: Dissolve with sterile water for injection, shake well before use; avoid intravenous administration.
V. Adverse Reactions and Contraindications
Adverse Reactions:
Local irritation (swelling, pain at the injection site).
Rare allergic reactions (rash, dyspnea).
Potential ototoxicity (hearing loss) and nephrotoxicity (more sensitive in young animals) from dihydrostreptomycin.
Contraindications:
Animals allergic to penicillins or aminoglycosides.
Young animals (e.g., piglets, chicks) due to high ototoxicity risk.
VI. Precautions
Before Use:
Confirm the infection type and avoid abuse.
Adjust dosage for animals with renal insufficiency.
During Use:
Observe the injection site and avoid repeated injections at the same location.
Monitor appetite, urine output, and hearing (discontinue if abnormalities occur).
Withdrawal Period:
Adhere to withdrawal periods for food-producing animals (e.g., 28 days for pigs and cattle, subject to the label).
Compatibility:
Avoid concurrent use with potent diuretics (may exacerbate ototoxicity).
Do not mix with acidic or alkaline drugs for injection.
VII. Storage
Store in a cool, dry place protected from light at ≤25°C (77°F).
Use the dissolved suspension promptly to prevent deterioration.
VIII. Veterinary Medication Principles
Require a veterinary prescription; administer strictly according to dosage and course to prevent drug resistance.
Prioritize drug sensitivity testing and narrow-spectrum antibiotics over(compound preparations) when possible.
Dispose of waste solution properly to avoid environmental pollution.
