FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION

NADA 141-247, Approved by FDA

Contains 1 mg moxidectin/mL

For Treatment and Control of Infections Due to Internal Parasites of Sheep.

Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis, treatment, and control of parasitism.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

CYDECTIN Oral Drench for Sheep is a ready-to-use solution containing 0.1% moxidectin. Moxidectin is an endectocide in the milbemycin chemical class which shares the distinctive mode of action characteristic of macrocyclic lactones. Moxidectin acts by interfering with chloride channel-mediated neurotransmission in the parasite. This results in paralysis and elimination of the parasite.

HUMAN WARNINGS:

Not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children. To obtain a copy of the material safety data sheet (MSDS) which provides more detailed occupational safety information or to report adverse reactions attributable to exposure to this product, call 1-866-638-2226.

RESIDUE WARNINGS:

Sheep must not be slaughtered for human consumption within 7 days of treatment. Because a withholding time in milk has not been established for this product, do not use in female sheep providing milk for human consumption.

ENVIRONMENTAL WARNINGS:

Studies indicate that when moxidectin comes in contact with the soil, it readily and tightly binds to the soil and becomes inactive. Free moxidectin may adversely affect fish and certain aquatic organisms. Do not contaminate water by direct application or by improper disposal of drug containers.

ANIMAL SAFETY WARNINGS:

CYDECTIN Oral Drench for Sheep has been formulated specifically for oral use in sheep and should not be given by any other route of administration. Do not use in sick, debilitated, or underweight animals. This product should not be used in other animal species as severe adverse reactions, including fatalities in dogs, may result.

ANIMAL SAFETY:

A well-controlled U.S. study has demonstrated an adequate margin of safety to allow treatment of sheep four months of age and older with CYDECTIN Oral Drench. In this study no signs of toxicity were seen in sheep given up to 5 times the recommended dose. Reproductive safety studies evaluating the use of CYDECTIN Oral Drench in breeding ewes and rams have not been conducted in the U.S.
