Product FAQ
Q1: What is the main use of Tiamulin Fumarate?
Tiamulin Fumarate is primarily used for controlling Mycoplasma infections, swine dysentery, ileitis, and respiratory diseases in pigs and poultry.
Q2: How does Tiamulin Fumarate work?
It inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, showing strong activity against Mycoplasma and Brachyspira species.
Q3: What is the classification of Tiamulin?
Tiamulin belongs to the pleuromutilin class of antimicrobials, distinct from macrolides and tetracyclines.
Q4: Is Tiamulin considered a macrolide?
No. Tiamulin is not a macrolide; it is a pleuromutilin derivative with a different chemical structure and mechanism of action.
Q5: How is Tiamulin Fumarate commonly administered?
It is typically administered via feed premixes or drinking-water solutions, depending on the target species and local veterinary guidelines.
