Product description

Orbenin-DC Dry Cow is a intramammary infusion for dry cows.

Active ingredients

Each disposable Orbenin-DC Dry Cow syringe contains 500 mg of cloxacillin as the benzathine salt in 7.5 g of suitable base.

Indications for use

Orbenin-DC Dry Cow is indicated in the treatment and prophylaxis of bovine mastitis in nonlactating cows due to Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae.

Administration and dosage

  • At the last milking of lactation, milk the cow out normally. Clean and disinfect the teats with alcohol swabs provided in the carton, and infuse 1 syringe of Orbenin-DC Dry Cow, which has been warmed to room temperature, into each quarter. Do not milk out. The cow may be milked as usual when she calves.

  • The extent of subclinical and latent mastitis in a herd is frequently greater than suspected. In untreated herds a significant buildup of subclinical mastitis may occur during the dry period, which results in clinical severity after a few lactations. The adverse influence of subclinical mastitis on milk yield, the risk of cross-infection, and the chance of clinical mastitis flare-up make it necessary to treat the matter as a herd problem. Clinical studies have proven the value of treating all the cows in heavily infected herds as they are dried off. When the herd infection has been reduced, it may be desirable to be more selective in treating infected quarters.
