Baytril Film Coated Tablets

(enrofloxacin)

Baytril Film Coated Tablets is a fluroquinolone antibiotic indicated for the management of disease in dogs associated with bacteria susceptible to enrofloxacin. Fluroquinolone antibiotics interfere with bacterial DNA metabolism killing the bacteria. Baytril is bactericidal against a wide range of gram positive and gram negative bacteria.

  • Urinary tract infections: Baytril exerts rapid bactericidal action in the urinary tract. Provides effective management of acute or chronic infections of the genito-urinary tract and prostate.
  • Respiratory tract infections: Baytril irreversibly inhibits a bacterial enzyme resulting in rapid bactericidal action. Achieves therapeutic concentrations in pulmonary and bronchial tissues.
  • Dermal infections: Bayril concentrates in inflamed tissue providing high drug levels at the infection site.

Dosage and Administration:

Dogs:
Administer orally at a rate to provide 5-20 mg/kg (2.27 to 9.07 mg/lb) of body weight. Selection of a dose within the range should be based on clinical experience, the severity of disease, and susceptibility of the pathogen. Animals which receive doses in the upper-end of the dose range should be carefully monitored for clinical signs that may include inappetence, depression, and vomition.
