Client Feedback: "The solubility and rapid action of SkyVetPharm's powder were impressive. We saw a dramatic turnaround much faster than with other amoxicillin products we've used. Their technical support was invaluable in managing the crisis." - Farm Manager
We believe that a superior product is only part of the solution. Building trust requires a comprehensive support system.
Amoxicillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic that inhibits the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, making it fragile. This is highly effective against many bacteria but can be less so against Gram-negative bacteria, which have a protective outer membrane. Colistin is a polymyxin antibiotic that acts like a detergent, disrupting this outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. The synergy works in two ways: Colistin's action allows Amoxicillin to more easily reach its target (the cell wall) in Gram-negative bacteria, and this dual-front attack makes it much harder for bacteria to develop resistance.
The withdrawal period is the time required after the last dose of a medication for the drug residues in the animal's tissues (meat, milk, eggs) to fall to a safe, acceptable level as defined by regulatory bodies like the FDA or EMA. For our Amoxicillin and Colistin powder, the meat withdrawal period is 7 days. Adhering to this is a legal requirement and is absolutely critical for public health to prevent antibiotic residues from entering the human food chain and contributing to antimicrobial resistance.
Absolutely. Our manufacturing facility is fully certified for Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). This is not just a sticker; it's a rigorous system of quality control that governs every aspect of production, from raw material sourcing and facility hygiene to process validation, final product testing, and record-keeping. GMP certification is your assurance that every sachet of our veterinary powder is safe, potent, and of consistent high quality.
They serve entirely different purposes. Our Amoxicillin/Colistin powder is a systemic antibiotic, meaning it's ingested (via water/feed) and absorbed into the bloodstream to fight internal infections throughout the body (e.g., in the gut, lungs). A veterinary wound powder is a topical treatment applied directly to external injuries. It typically contains antiseptics (to kill surface germs), astringents (to stop minor bleeding), and absorbents (to keep the wound dry), but it is not absorbed into the body to fight systemic disease.
While generally safe, it's a matter of proper management. A calcium powder for veterinary use is a nutritional supplement. Certain minerals, including calcium, can sometimes chelate (bind to) antibiotics in the gut, potentially reducing their absorption. To be safe, it is generally recommended to administer antibiotic treatments and high-concentration mineral supplements at different times of the day (e.g., antibiotic in the morning water, calcium supplement in the afternoon feed) to ensure maximum efficacy of both products. Always consult a veterinarian for specific protocols.
The standard recommended dosage is 100g of the powder per 200 liters of drinking water for 3-5 consecutive days. However, this can vary based on the age of the birds, their daily water intake, and the severity of the infection. It is critical to calculate the total daily dose based on the total biomass (kg) of the birds to be treated. Our technical support team can provide precise calculation assistance to ensure effective therapeutic levels are reached without overdosing.
To ensure the stated 36-month shelf life, the product must be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, at a temperature below 25°C (77°F). The sachets are made of a multi-layer foil that protects against moisture and light, but once a sachet is opened, it should be used promptly. Improper storage can degrade the active ingredients and reduce the efficacy of the veterinary powder.
Choosing the right veterinary powder is a decision that impacts animal welfare, farm productivity, and food safety. Formulations like SkyVetPharm's Amoxicillin and Colistin Sulfate Powder, backed by GMP manufacturing, rigorous quality control, and data-proven efficacy, represent the pinnacle of modern veterinary pharmaceuticals.
