Primox Plus
Primox Plus is a potent, broad-spectrum antibiotic formulation that combines amoxicillin and clavulanic acid to treat a wide range of bacterial infections, especially those caused by β-lactamase-producing organisms. It is particularly effective for respiratory and systemic infections in poultry.
Each 100 gm contains:
Amoxicillin as Amoxicillin Trihydrate – 16.000 gm
Clavulanic Acid as Potassium Clavulanate – 4.000 gm
Primox Plus is indicated in poultry for:
Respiratory infections such as Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD) and Ornithobacterium Rhinotracheale (ORT)
Bacterial arthritis and systemic bacterial infections
Infections caused by E. coli, Staphylococci, Streptococci, Salmonella, Clostridium, Listeria, Haemophilus paragallinarum, and Proteus spp.
Infections involving β-lactamase-producing bacteria
Amoxicillin inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis, while clavulanic acid acts as a β-lactamase inhibitor, protecting amoxicillin from enzymatic degradation. Together, they extend the antibiotic spectrum to resistant bacterial strains, ensuring maximum efficacy against difficult infections.
