[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 262393, member: 852"] Figure if you like Excenel you might like Excede better. Got to thinking not all of you might know about it. Both (as well as Naxcel) are composed of the drug ceftiofur, but Excede is a much longer lasting suspension. About 7+ days, which nearly eliminates the need for a second treatment. I wrote out the specifics the other day to figure out cost comparisons. Excenel is 50mg/mL -- Excede is 200mg/mL. Excenel is $65 from our supplier, Excede is $185 (100mL bottle prices). So Excede is 3x the price at 4x the concentration with no need for a second dose. If you use a standard 3 treatments of Excenel like we do, then it's about $29 in Excenel vs $27 in Excede (per cow) with less labor. (Just been approved for use in lactating dairy cattle with no milk withdrawal, so we've been using a fair bit of it and I've been pleased with what I've seen.) Excenel carries a 4 day slaughter withdrawal, Excede carries none when used per label directions as a base-of-ear injection. Doesn't have to be given that way... I've been using it SQ and so far the creamery hasn't called me on it. :P :oops: My vet tells me the BOE use is only so there is no slaughter withdrawal. Thought perhaps ya'll would be interested. ;-) [/QUOTE]
