Tylosin Tartrate

Tylosin Tartrate is a veterinary antibiotic derived from tylosin, a macrolide compound produced by Streptomyces bacteria. As the tartrate salt of tylosin, it offers enhanced solubility and stability, making it a preferred choice for treating bacterial and mycoplasmal infections in livestock and poultry. This antibiotic is widely recognized for its efficacy against Gram-positive bacteria and mycoplasma, serving as a first-line treatment for respiratory and enteric diseases in animals.

Broad-Spectrum Activity: Effective against Gram-positive bacteria (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus spp.) and mycoplasma, with superior action against mycoplasmal infections compared to other macrolides.
Enhanced Bioavailability: The tartrate formulation ensures better absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to higher blood concentrations and improved therapeutic outcomes.
Versatile Applications: Suitable for oral administration, intramuscular injection, or water-soluble formulations, catering to diverse clinical needs.
Proven Safety Profile: Low toxicity with minimal residues, compliant with international veterinary standards.
Synergistic Potential: Compatible with certain feed additives (under guided usage) to enhance growth promotion and disease prevention.

Poultry Health
Treats chronic respiratory disease (CRD), infectious sinusitis, and airsacculitis caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum.
Controls secondary bacterial infections in viral outbreaks.
 

Swine Health
Prevents and manages swine enzootic pneumonia (Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae).
Addresses enteric infections (e.g., swine dysentery, porcine colitis) and streptococcal arthritis.
 

Other Livestock
Used in cattle and sheep for mastitis, foot rot, and bovine respiratory disease (BRD).
Effective against Mycoplasma spp. in goats and rabbits.
 

Dosage & Administration
Oral: Mix 100–300 mg/kg feed for poultry/swine, 5–7 days.
Water Soluble: 200–250 mg/L water for poultry, 3–5 days.
Injection: 5–10 mg/kg body weight (livestock), once daily.
 

Precautions
Avoid concurrent use with β-lactams, chloramphenicol, or ionophore anticoccidials (e.g., monensin).
Withdrawal period: 5 days (poultry); not for use in laying hens.

As a cost-effective and reliable antibiotic, Tylosin Tartrate combines targeted action against mycoplasma with flexible administration options. Its low cross-resistance risk and proven field efficacy make it a staple in veterinary medicine worldwide.
