A field study was conducted in Nebraska (n=240) comparing the efficacy of a single dose of DRAXXIN (2.5 mg/kg) to Nuflor (40 mg/kg) as first-line BRD treatments, from days 3 through 28 and days 3 through close (day 60).2
  • First-treatment success from days 3 through 28 was significantly higher for cattle that received DRAXXIN (83.1%) than that for cattle which received Nuflor (52.1%) (Figure 6).
  • Chronics and mortalities (BRD removals), in cattle treated with DRAXXIN, were significantly lower (2.5%) than for those that received Nuflor (9.2%), from day 3 through 28.
  • Treatment success from days 3 through close was significantly higher for cattle that received DRAXXIN (79.7%) than for cattle that received Nuflor (48.7%).
  • Chronics and mortalities (BRD removals), in cattle treated with DRAXXIN, were significantly lower (5.1%) than for those that received Nuflor (15.1%), from day 3 through close.

A second field study was conducted in Nebraska (n=200) comparing the efficacy of a single dose of DRAXXIN (2.5 mg/kg) to a single dose of Micotil (10 mg/kg) for days 3 through 28 and days 3 through close (day 60 or 61).2
  • First-treatment success from days 3 through 28 was significantly higher for animals that received DRAXXIN (80.0%) than that for animals which received Micotil (35.0%) (Figure 7).
  • Chronics and mortalities (BRD removals), in cattle treated with DRAXXIN, were significantly lower (4.0%) than for those that received Micotil (26.0%), from day 3 through 28.
  • Treatment success from days 3 through 60 was significantly higher for animals that received DRAXXIN (78.0%) than for animals that received Micotil (34.0%).
  • Chronics and mortalities (BRD removals), in cattle treated with DRAXXIN, were significantly lower (6.0%) than for those that received Micotil (32.0%) from day 3 through close (day 60 or 61).

A third field study was conducted in Nebraska (n=360) comparing the efficacy of a single dose of DRAXXIN (2.5 mg/kg) to Nuflor (40 mg/kg) or Micotil (10 mg/kg) as first-line BRD treatments, from days 3 through 28 and days 3 through close (day 57 to 61).2
  • First-treatment success from days 3 through 28 was significantly higher for cattle that received DRAXXIN (73.7%) than that for cattle that received Nulfor (58.5) or Micotil (55.1%) (Figure 8).
  • Chronics and mortalities (BRD removals), in cattle treated with DRAXXIN, were significantly lower (2.5%) than for those that received Nuflor (16.1%) or Micotil (13.6%), from day 3 through 28.
  • Treatment success from days 3 through close was significantly higher for cattle that received DRAXXIN (72.0%) than for cattle that received Nuflor (57.3%) or Micotil (50.9%).
  • Chronics and mortalities (BRD removals), in cattle treated with DRAXXIN, were significantly lower (3.4%) than for those that received Nuflor (21.4%) or Micotil (15.3%), from day 3 through close.
