Draxxin Tulathromycin is a novel macrolide from a new subclass known as triamilides. From Pfizer, this medication has quickly secured its place as the first-line BRD (bovine respiratory disease) treatment. It is incredibly impressive in treating this disease, even in high-risk cattle.

Key Benefits: Draxxin is a parenterally-injected, ready-to-use, sterile preparation that uses Tulathromycin, a semi-synthetic Triamilide Macrolide antibiotic.
