Lobsters: Thoroughly mix 2.75 kg of Terramycin-Aqua 800 with 997.25 kg of complete lobster feed to obtain a medicated feed with an Oxytetracycline dihydrate concentration of 0.22% (2200 mg/kg). The medicated feed can be prepared in the form of meal or pellets.
Feeding Directions
To reduce the development of antimicrobial resistance and maintain effectiveness, use this antibiotic prudently.
Salmonids: The medicated feeds are to be fed as the sole ration for 10 consecutive days. If mortality is not reduced by the fifth day of treatment, the diagnosis should be re-evaluated.
Lobsters: Feed as the sole ration for 5 consecutive days following the introduction of each new batch of lobsters into a confinement area. Feed to appetite at approximately 1 kg of medicated ration per 450 kg of lobsters per day.
CAUTIONS
(1) In fish and lobster feeds having a high ash content, ions of Ca, Fe, Cu, and Zn may bind with Oxytetracycline, retarding its absorption from the gut.
(2) Do not use in feeds containing the pellet-binding agent bentonite.
Warnings
Salmonids: Treated fish must not be liberated or slaughtered for use in food for at least 40 days (when the water temperature is 10°C or higher) or 80 days (when the water temperature is below 10°C) after the latest treatment with this drug.
Lobsters: Treated lobsters must not be marketed for use in food for at least 30 days after the latest treatment with this drug.
When handling the product, avoid inhalation, oral exposure and direct contact with skin or eyes.
Keep out of reach of children.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C. Keep from freezing.
