To control a necrotic enteritis outbreak, start medication at the first clinical signs of disease. The bacitracin methylenedisalicylate dosage range permitted provides for different levels based on severity of the infection. Consult a poultry diagnostic laboratory or pathologist to determine the diagnosis and advice regarding the optimal level of bacitracin methylenedisalicylate. Administer continuously for 5-7 days or as long as clinical signs persist, and then reduce bacitracin methylenedisalicylate dosage to prevention level (50 g/ton). May be fatal if fed to adult turkeys or to horses. Salinomycin as provided by No. 016592; bacitracin methylenedisalicylate as provided by No. 066104 in § 510.600(c) in this chapter | 066104 |
