Bovatec ® Lasalocid Feed Additive Liquid 200g/L

Off white to yellow, smooth uniform suspension.

Bovatec in the rumen reduces the Gram-positive bacterial population, including those often responsible for excessive gas production, thus allowing for the development of Gram-negative bacteria and some protozoa. The modification in ruminal microflora population results in improved feed efficiency. Bovatec is also coccidiocidal against the most common bovine coccidial species, resulting in reduced shedding of coccidial oocysts and reduced clinical signs of coccidiosis

Mixing directions. Agitate Bovatec Liquid before use by means of an air pump or electric paddle. Supplements with suspending agents should maintain a positional stability for up to three months, with a viscosity of not less than 300 cps. Supplements should be in a pH range of 4 to 8. Ten minute recirculation is required daily prior to use. Bovatec Liquid is for use in complete cattle feed, or supplements to a ration, given by continuous feeding. Mix evenly into stock feed or milk replacer. For detailed feeding instructions refer to literature supplied with product or contact manufacturer

Harmful if swallowed. Will irritate the eyes and skin. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Do not inhale dust. When opening the container and mixing into stock feed wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist and a washable hat, elbow length PVC gloves, face shield or goggles and disposable dust mask. Wash hands after use. After each day's use, wash gloves, goggles and contaminated clothing

Only for use in feeds for lot fed beef and dairy cattle, calves and sheep. Bovatec Liquid medicated feed may cause a reduction of intake when first introduced to cows. To minimise this effect cattle may be acclimatised by phasing in medicated feed over several days during the precalving period. Medicated feed is well tolerated after the introductory period. Provide medicated feed for the duration of lactation and do not exceed preferred use rate for Bovatec in dairy cattle. Reduced daily gain may result at five times and mortality from 15 times maximum recommended dose.

To achieve optimal response in milk production, animals should be in good body condition in order that nutrients are not diverted to body stores but are available for milk. Do not feed more than 400 mg lasalocid/head/day to lactating dairy cattle.
