Each mL contains 300 mg of oxytetracycline base (equivalent to 323.5 mg of oxytetracycline dihydrate). For Use in Beef Cattle, Non-lactating Dairy Cattle, Calves, Including pre-ruminating (veal) calves (oxytetracycline injection) ANTIBIOTIC Noromycin ® 300 LA Approved by FDA under NADA # 141-143
BRIEF SUMMARY (For full Prescribing Information, see package insert.)
INDICATIONS: NOROMYCIN 300 LA is intended for use in treatment for the following diseases when due to oxytetracycline-susceptible organisms: Beef cattle, non-lactating dairy cattle, calves, including pre-ruminating (veal) calves: NOROMYCIN 300 LA is indicated in the treatment of pneumonia and shipping fever complex associated with Pasteurella spp., and Histophilus spp. NOROMYCIN 300 LA is indicated for the treatment of infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (pink eye) caused by Moraxella bovis, foot-rot and diphtheria caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum; bacterial enteritis (scours) caused by Escherichia coli; wooden tongue caused by Actinobacillus lignieresii; leptospirosis caused by Leptospira pomona; and wound infections and acute metritis Swine: NOROMYCIN 300 LA is indicated in the treatment of bacterial enteritis (scours, colibacillosis) caused by Escherichia coli; pneumonia caused by Pasteurella multocida; and leptospirosis caused by Leptospira pomona. In sows NOROMYCIN 300 LA is indicated as an aid in control of infectious enteritis (baby pig scours, colibacillosis) in suckling pigs caused by Escherichia coli. PRECAUTIONS: Exceeding the highest recommended level of drug per pound of bodyweight per day, administering more than the recommended number of treatments, and/or exceeding 10 mL intramuscularly or subcutaneously per injection site in adult beef cattle and non-lactating dairy cattle and 5 mL intramuscularly per injection site in adult swine, may result in antibiotic residues beyond the withdrawal time. Consult with your veterinarian prior to administering this product in order to determine the proper treatment required in the event of an adverse reaction. At the first sign of any adverse reaction, discontinue use of the product and seek the advice of your veterinarian. Some of the reactions may be attributable either to anaphylaxis (an allergic reaction) or to cardiovascular collapse of unknown cause. caused by strains of staphylococcal and streptococcal organisms sensitive to oxytetracycline. Shortly after injection treated animals may have transient hemoglobinuria resulting in darkened urine. As with all antibiotic preparations, use of this drug may result in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms, including fungi. The absence of a favorable response following treatment, or the development of new signs or symptoms may suggest an overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms. If superinfections occur, the use of this product should be discontinued and appropriate specific therapy should be instituted. Since bacteriostatic drugs may interfere with the bactericidal action of penicillin, it is advisable to avoid giving NOROMYCIN 300 LA in conjunction with penicillin.
The strategy was to insure months in which forage production is vital for the ranch operation. He chose to insure 30 percent for the interval May-June, 40 percent July-August, and 30 percent September-October. The USDA support tool estimated the producer premium at $2.20 per acre for the 1,000 acres ranch example.“The estimated indemnity was calculated as $17.07 per acre,” Benavidez said, “resulting in $14.87 after premium cost. “Assuming a stocking rate of 15 acres per cow, the net result obtained per cow was $223.05. These indemnities might not be enough to cover all the extra costs and hard work during a severe drought, but they will certainly help pay for most of our additional feeding costs.” Benavidez also analyzed the impact of this strategy over the last 20 years. The support tool estimated and average payment of $1.74 per acre for those 20 years above premium costs. The coverage would have paid off most of the time. “In five of the 20 years, indemnities were not high enough to compensate for premiums paid,” he said.“In 75
percent of the cases, the program paid indemnities to cover producers’ premium costs given this grid location. Most importantly, it supported producers to cover extra and higher feeding costs when precipitation is lower than usual.” With drought more common than wet weather in much of Texas, Tucker said producers could nearly always recover their premium costs and often receive enough payments to help buy replacements or feed. “Every one of my Texas customers has earned a payment in the 2022 crop year,” he said. In the end, no farmer or rancher can determine when and if it will rain. Pastures are at the mercy of Mother Nature. But PRF insurance is a tool to help offset poor grazing conditions. It’s a way for desperate producers to help fool Mother Nature – and hedge against a drought. For more on PRF insurance, visit prfrainfall.com .

WARNINGS:
Warnings: Discontinue treatment at least 28 days prior to slaughter of cattle and swine. Not for use in lactating dairy animals. Rapid intravenous administration may result in animal collapse. Oxytetracycline should be administered intravenously slowly over a period of at least 5 minutes. CAUTION: Intramuscular or subcutaneous injection may result in local tissue reactions which persists beyond the slaughter withdrawal period. This may result in trim loss of edible tissue at slaughter. Intramuscular injection in the rump area may cause mild temporary lameness associated with swelling at the injection site. Subcutaneous injection in the neck area may cause swelling at the injection site. ADVERSE REACTIONS: Reports of adverse reactions associated with oxytetracycline administration include injection site swelling, restlessness, ataxia, trembling, swelling of eyelids, ears, muzzle, anus and vulva (or scrotum and sheath in males), respiratory abnormalities (labored breathing), frothing at the mouth, collapse and possibly death. Some of these reactions may be attributed either to anaphylaxis (an allergic reaction) or to cardiovascular collapse of unknown cause. To report a suspected adverse reaction call 1-866-591-5777.
