Introduction (Product Introduction)
Tylmicosin 25% is an effective antibiotic based on tylmicosin, formulated as an oral solution for use in poultry and livestock. This drug has strong activity against Gram-positive bacteria, Mycoplasma, and common respiratory pathogens, playing an important role in the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections. Use of Tylmicosin 25% helps reduce mortality, improve respiratory symptoms, increase appetite, and enhance flock and herd performance, making it an ideal choice during disease outbreaks and periods of stress.

Indications
Tylmicosin is used to control and treat respiratory diseases caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Mycoplasma synoviae, Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale, Pasteurella multocida, and other microorganisms sensitive to tylmicosin.
