Parnell Living Science is pleased to announce the launch of RESPIRmycin, a ready-to-use injectable solution containing 100 mg of tulathromycin/mL, a trusted antibiotic to treat and control bovine respiratory disease (BRD) in cattle, foot rot and pinkeye, as well as swine respiratory disease
The prescription antibiotic, recently approved for Parnell by the FDA, is the latest addition to the injectable portfolio of bovine solutions offered by Parnell. RESPIRmycin is manufactured in Parnell’s FDA approved facility and meets all high quality and safety standards.
“Parnell is excited to offer RESPIRmycin to veterinarians and producers as a solution to respiratory disease in cattle,” said Pablo Lamberto, DVM, president of U.S. operations at Parnell Living Science. “This addition to Parnell’s existing products and technologies offer customers the same quality they have experienced with our recognized cattle reproductive solution portfolio including GONAbreed, estroPLAN and mySYNCH.”
