This medication contains important usage instructions, warnings, and side effect information that you should review before use.
INDICATIONS: Amoxi-Mast is indicated in the treatment of subclinical infectious bovine mastitis in lactating cows due to Streptococcus agalactiae and penicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. Early detection and treatment of mastitis is advised.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Milk out udder completely. Wash udder and teats thoroughly with warm water containing a suitable dairy antiseptic. Dry thoroughly. Clean and disinfect the teat with alcohol swabs provided in the carton. Remove the syringe tip cover and insert the tip of the syringe into the teat orifice. Express the suspension into the quarter with gentle and continuous pressure. Withdraw the syringe and grasp the end of the teat firmly. Massage the medication up into the milk cistern.
For optimum response, the drug should be administered by intramammary infusion in each infected quarter as described above. Treatment should be repeated at 12-hour intervals for a total of 3 doses. At the next routine milking after the last dose, the treated quarter should be milked out and the milk discarded.
Each carton contains 12 alcohol swabs to facilitate proper cleaning and disinfecting of the teat orifice.

Amoxi-Mast (amoxicillin intramammary infusion) is specially prepared for the treatment of bovine mastitis in lactating cows.
ACTION: Amoxicillin trihydrate is bactericidal in action against susceptible organisms. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic which is effective against common infectious mastitis pathogens, namely Streptococcus agalactiae and penicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus.
In vitro studies have demonstrated the susceptibility of the following strains of bacteria: α- and β-haemolytic streptococci, nonpenicillinase-producing staphylococci, and Escherichia coli. Susceptibility has not been demonstrated against penicillinase-producing bacteria, particularly resistant staphylococci. Most strains of Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, and Enterobacter are resistant. The clinical or subclinical significance of these in vitro studies is not known.
