This veterinary oral powder is a broad-spectrum, dual-action antibiotic formulation combining two highly effective agents: Neomycin Sulphate, an aminoglycoside antibiotic primarily active against Gram-negative bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, and Oxytetracycline Hydrochloride, a tetracycline-class antibiotic with wide-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. The combination is synergistic in targeting both systemic and enteric infections in livestock and poultry.
