Uses

For the promotion of a fertile oestrous cycle in gilts and in sows post-weaning, and the treatment of suboestrus or anoestrus in barren sows due to hormonal imbalance.

Dosage and administration

Reconstitute by injecting approximately 2 ml of the solvent provided into the hormone vial, ensure the freeze dried plug is fully dissolved, and re-inject the resulting solution into the diluent vial. Shake well before use.

One dose (5 ml of reconstituted product) should be aseptically injected subcutaneously or preferably, intramuscularly, at the base of the ear using a 1.5" needle, which must be directed horizontally.

Gilts: Administration of a single dose of the product to gilts over the age of five months will normally result in a fertile oestrus within five days.

Sows post-weaning: To promote early post-partum oestrus (particularly where early weaning is practised) it is recommended that a single injection of the product be given within 48 hours of weaning.

Barren sows: Cases of suboestrus or anoestrus due to hormonal imbalance may respond favourably to a single dose of the product, exhibiting normal heat within five days of injection. If corpora lutea are present on the ovary when the product is administered, the sow or gilt will fail to respond. For this reason, if an anoestrus sow or gilt fails to respond to the product, wait 10 days before repeating the injection.

Contra-indications, warnings, etc

When administered by the subcutaneous route, care must be taken to avoid injection into subcutaneous fat. In the unlikely event of an individual anaphylactic reaction, 1-3 ml Adrenaline 1:1000 solution should be given by intramuscular injection.

Not indicated for use during pregnancy. The injection of PG600 into a pregnant sow or gilt will fail to produce heat and will not cause abortion.

Do not mix this product with other medicinal products.
