What is Flavomycin?

Therapeutic Class:
Target Species:

Active Ingredients: Flavomycin

Flavomycin Premix is a performance-enhancing antibiotic used as a feed additive for poultry. It supports an animal's digestive function and increases nutrient absorption within the digestive tract. Flavomycin also promotes growth and improves the conversion rate of food.

The drug can effectively prevent the synthesis of carbohydrates and proteins and decrease irritability by establishing a balance between groups of intestinal flora and maintaining the stability of the pH. This medication, when given orally, is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and it has a role as a growth promoter since it acts locally in the gut. It does not lead to any significant systemic absorption. Because it has limited absorption, it is not distributed well and undergoes minimal metabolism in the body. This medication is excreted unchanged in the feces due to poor absorption and minimal metabolism.

Flavomycin has also been shown to decrease the frequency of transferable drug resistance in gram-negative enteropathogens and reduce the excretion of pathogenic bacteria, such as Salmonella.

Flavomycin is also known by the name Bambermycin. It is a complex of antibiotics that have been derived from Streptomyces bambergiensis. It should be used in low concentrations to promote growth and improve feed efficiency.

It is important to note that Flavomycin Premix is for veterinary purposes only.

Uses

What is Flavomycin used for?

It is used as a feed additive, which helps to:

  • balance and improve intestinal microflora
  • reduce gastrointestinal problems
  • increase the vitality and well-being of the animal
  • increase homogeneous growth and decrease mortality rate

Flavomycin also reduces the number of animals carrying pathogens at the time of slaughter.

What animals can be treated with Flavomycin Premix?

This medicine is recommended for poultry.

How is Flavomycin Premix used?

This product has been manufactured as powder, which is intended to be mixed into feed. The product should be used immediately when mixed with feed.

Can Flavomycin Premix treat bacterial infections?

This antibiotic is primarily used for promoting growth and improving the intestinal microflora. It can also help in the process of converting feed. It is not used to treat active infections, but it can be used for maintaining a healthy gut bacteria balance. This can improve the overall health and reduce the chances of bacterial infections.

For the treatment of bacterial infections in poultry, other antibiotics and other forms of antibiotics should be used. The treatment should be chosen based on the antibiogram test results.

Can Flavomycin Premix be used for treating viral and fungal infections?

No, this product should be strictly used for promoting growth and should be used as a feed additive. For viral and fungal infections appropriate drugs and supplements need to be used. This includes antiviral and antifungal drugs and the choice should be made based on the diagnosis and the present pathogen.

What are the most common benefits of Flavomycin Premix in poultry?

This product can lead to a better conversion of feed into body mass and can lead to a better growth rate. It can also improve the appetite of the animal and lead to normal weight gain which can later improve meat production. It has a positive impact on the farmer’s economy because it reduces feed costs while increasing production levels.

This drug maintains a healthy gut bacteria balance and can prevent overgrowth of harmful bacteria. It leads to better digestion and better nutrient absorption.

Does Flavomycin Premix positively impact the immune system?

Yes, because this drug reduces the number of harmful bacteria while increasing the beneficial bacteria in the gut at the same time. This can lead to a healthier gut environment and can reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal diseases which leads to lower mortality rates. It also reduces the need for therapeutic antibiotics and can help in minimizing antibiotic usage.

Does Flavomycin Premix lead to positive effects on humans?

Studies performed on broilers show that adding additives can reduce the incidence of potential human and animal pathogens. This indirectly prevents humans from zoonotic diseases. It can protect the animals from infections such as Salmonella enteritidis, Campylobacter jejuni, and Clostridium perfringens.

Can Flavomycin Premix be used as a substitute for food in poultry?

No, this product is a feed additive and should never be used as a food substitute or a whole meal. It should be given only according to the veterinarian’s instructions based on the current status of the animal and the poultry species.

Can Flavomycin Premix help in the treatment process of gastrointestinal diseases?

It is only used as a feed additive, but it can lead to indirect gastrointestinal benefits. This includes a healthy intestinal balance like supporting the growth of the beneficial bacteria. It also leads to better overall health and reduced pathogen load of harmful bacteria in the gut. This will help in the prevention process of gastrointestinal diseases.

Can Flavomycin Premix be added during the recovery process of certain diseases?

It depends on the cause of the disease and the pathogen. This product has only indirect positive effects that include increasing the number of beneficial bacteria. It can also promote better feed intake which leads to optimal health and performance.

What should be done if side effects occur?

If side effects occur, they should be reported to a veterinarian as soon as possible and the adverse effects need to be managed accordingly.

Is the dosage different in all poultry?

Yes, the dosage largely depends on the species. For example, broiler chickens are recommended to take 1-2g per ton of feed, while hogs should have 2-4g per ton of feed. Consult with a veterinarian to determine the best dosage based on the animal’s species and current health status.

How should Flavomycin Premix be stored?

This medication should be stored in a dark, dry location under 25°C. Keep the medicine in a tightly sealed container when not in use. Flavomycin is extremely stable and has a shelf life of 24 months when stored properly.

Is there a withdrawal period after treatment with Flavomycin Premix?

The withdrawal time is 6 days for meat. The exact duration will depend on local regulations. After administration, Flavomycin is rarely absorbed and not metabolized by livestock. After 24 hours, the droppings are almost completely unchanged.

Dosage

How much Flavomycin Premix should be added to the feed?

The usual dosage is as follows:

  • broiler chickens: 1-2g per ton of feed
  • hogs in their growing period: 2-4g per ton of feed
