Diminazene Aceturate 70mg/mL + Phenazone 375mg/mL Veterinary Injection

Product Introduction

Diminazene aceturate 70mg/mL + Phenazone 375mg/mL is a veterinary combination for susceptible blood-protozoal infections, including babesiosis and trypanosomiasis. It combines antiprotozoal treatment with fever relief in affected animals.

How to use

A veterinarian gives the weight-based amount by deep intramuscular or subcutaneous injection at the side of the neck. This is a ready-to-use solution, not a powder requiring reconstitution. The injected volume depends on the animal's weight and the blood-parasite infection being treated, not on vial size.

How it works

Diminazene disrupts nucleic-acid processes in susceptible blood protozoa. Phenazone has antipyretic activity that helps reduce the fever accompanying the infection.

Side effects

Injection-site reactions and systemic toxicity may occur; excessive exposure can cause serious neurological injury.

Important information

Do not transfer a cattle regimen to dogs, horses or other species, or repeat treatment simply because fever persists. Excess or repeated dosing can cause serious nervous-system toxicity. Keep treated animals' milk and meat out of the food supply until the applicable withdrawal period has elapsed.
