For Prevention and Treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia in Baby Pigs

DESCRIPTION
IRON HYDROGENATED DEXTRAN INJECTION is a sterile solution containing
100 mg of
elemental iron per mL, stabilized with a low molecular weight
hydrogenated dextran and 0.5% phenol as
a preservative.
INDICATIONS
For the prevention and treatment of anemia due to iron deficiency in
baby pigs.
Iron deficiency anemia occurs commonly in the suckling pig, often
within the first few days following
birth. As body size and blood volume increase rapidly from the first
few days following birth,
hemoglobin levels in the blood fall due to diminishing iron reserves
which cannot be replaced
adequately from iron in the sow's milk. Thus, the need for a readily
available outside source of iron is
apparent.Without this additional iron many newborn pigs may develop
anemia within the first few days
of life. Anemia retards growth and lowers the body defenses against
disease; scours, pneumonia, and
other conditions may develop. Death from anemia or infections may
occur, sometimes destroying entire
litters.
DOSAGE
For intramuscular injection only.
For PREVENTION of iron deficiency anemia, administer 1 mL (100 mg
iron) at 2 to 4 days of age.
For TREATMENT of iron deficiency anemia, administer 1 mL (100 mg
iron). Treatment may be repeated in
10 days.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Disinfect rubber stopper of vial and injection site with a cotton ball
moistened with rubbing alcohol or
other suitable disinfectant. Use a small needle (20 gauge, 5/8 inch)

intramuscularly into the back of the ham
