Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.
cloxacillin benzathine
cloxacillin 500 mg in 7.5 mL
INTRAMAMMARY
PRESCRIPTION
INDICATIONS: Orbenin-DC is indicated in the treatment and prophylaxis of bovine mastitis in nonlactating cows due to Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae . CONTRAINDICATIONS: Because cloxacillin benzathine is relatively insoluble, Orbenin-DC's activity will be prolonged. Therefore, Orbenin-DC should not be used for the occasional cow which may have a dry period of less than 4 weeks. This precaution will avoid residues in the milk following removal of the colostrum.
HOW SUPPLIED: Orbenin-DC is supplied in pails of 144 single dose syringes with 144 alcohol wipes. Each disposable syringe contains 500 mg of cloxacillin as the benzathine salt in 7.5 g of suitable base. Do Not Store Above 24°C (75°F)

ORBENIN-DC- CLOXACILLIN BENZATHINE SUSPENSION MERCK SHARP & DOHME CORP. ---------- ORBENIN-DC™ (CLOXACILLIN BENZATHINE INTRAMAMMARY INFUSION) CAUTION: Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian. DESCRIPTION: Orbenin-DC (cloxacillin benzathine intramammary infusion) is a stable, nonirritating suspension of cloxacillin benzathine containing the equivalent of 500 mg of cloxacillin per disposable syringe. Orbenin-DC is manufactured by a nonsterilizing process. Cloxacillin benzathine is a semisynthetic penicillin derived from the penicillin nucleus, 6- amino-penicillanic acid. Cloxacillin benzathine is the benzathine salt of 6-[3-(2- chlorophenyl)-5-methylisoxazolyl-4-carboxamido] penicillanic acid. The low solubility of Orbenin-DC results in an extended period of activity. Therefore, directions for use should be followed explicitly. ACTION: Cloxacillin benzathine is bactericidal in action against susceptible organisms during the stage of active multiplication. It acts through the inhibition of biosynthesis of cell wall mucopeptide. It is active against gram-positive organisms associated with mastitis such as _Staphylococcus aureus_ and _Streptococcus agalactiae_ and, because of its resistance to penicillinase, penicillin G-resistant staphylococci which may be the cause of mastitis. Appropriate laboratory tests should be conducted, including in vitro culturing and susceptibility tests on pretreatment milk samples collected aseptically. SUSCEPTIBILITY TEST: The Kirby-Bauer procedure, utilizing antibiotic susceptibility disks, is a quantitative method that may be adapted to determining the sensitivity of bacteria in milk to Orbenin-DC. For testing the effectiveness of Orbenin-DC in milk, follow the Kirby-Bauer procedure using the 1 mcg oxacillin susceptibility disk. Zone diameters for interpreting susceptibility are: RESISTANT INTERMEDIATE SUSCEPTIBLE ≤ 10 mm 11-12 mm ≥ 13 mm 1 INDICATIONS: Orbenin-DC is indicated in the treatment and prophylaxis of bovine mastitis in nonl Olvassa el a teljes dokumentumot
