Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is Amoxi-Mast intramammary infusion used for in dairy cows?

Ans: Amoxi-Mast antibiotic infusion is used to treat subclinical mastitis in lactating dairy cows due to Streptococcus agalactiae and penicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. It works as a bactericidal agent, targeting infection-causing bacteria directly inside the udder.

Q2: How does Amoxi-Mast amoxicillin mastitis treatment work?

Ans: This amoxicillin-based mastitis treatment works by killing susceptible bacteria through bactericidal action. It disrupts bacterial cell wall formation, making it effective against common mastitis pathogens like Streptococcus agalactiae and penicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus in lactating cows.

Q3: How is Amoxi-Mast lactating cow formula administered?

Ans: The Amoxi-Mast infusion is administered directly into the infected udder quarter after proper cleaning and disinfection. It is given every 12 hours for three doses, with gentle infusion and post-treatment massage to ensure proper distribution within the milk cistern.

Q4: What is the milk withdrawal period for Amoxi-Mast antibiotic infusion?

Ans: Milk from treated cows must not be used for food during treatment and for 60 hours after the final dose. This withdrawal period ensures that antibiotic residues are not present in milk intended for human consumption.

Q5: Is Amoxi-Mast bovine mastitis treatment safe for all cows?

Ans: Amoxi-Mast is generally safe when used as directed under veterinary supervision. However, as a penicillin-derived product, it may rarely cause allergic reactions. In such cases, standard treatments like antihistamines should be administered promptly.
