Description

Solveseal is a sterile, antibiotic-free, off-white smooth paste. It is presented, ready to use, in syringes, each containing 4 g of intramammary infusion composed of 65% bismuth subnitrate, in a mineral oil vehicle. This aids in preventing bacteria from entering the teat canal during the dry period which results in a reduced incidence of mastitis.

It is recommended that Solveseal be used as part of a herd approach to dry cow management and mastitis control.

INSTRUCTION FOR USE: After last milking at dry-off, clean and disinfect the teats with the alcohol wipes provided. Gently pinch the base of the teat near the udder attachment to close the teat canal. Infuse entire contents of one syringe of Solveseal into each quarter by inserting the nozzle into the teat and applying gentle continuous pressure to the plunger until the paste is expressed. Solveseal must remain in the teat canal to be effective.

Do not massage teat or udder following infusion. If an antibiotic is infused into the teat, the teat should be re-wiped with the alcohol wipe provided prior to infusion with Solveseal. If an antibiotic is used, it should always be infused before Solveseal. A clean, disinfected and dry teat is essential, as Solveseal possesses no antimicrobial activity. It is advisable to use an appropriate teat disinfectant following the infusion.

WITHDRAWAL INFORMATION: For use in dry cows only. Zero-day milk and meat withdrawal when used alone. If Solveseal is administered following an antibiotic infusion, the withdrawal periods for meat and milk for the antibiotic must be observed.

Storage

Solveseal should be stored at room temperature. In very cold temperatures Solveseal may become difficult to administer and should be warmed to room temperature.
