Description

Enrofloxacin Hydrochloride is a synthetic fluoroquinolone antibiotic, specifically formulated as the hydrochloride salt for enhanced stability and solubility. This compound is a critical active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) valued for its broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. It is primarily utilized in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry for the formulation of injectable and oral medications to treat bacterial infections in livestock and companion animals.

Application

• Veterinary Pharmaceutical API: Primary active ingredient in injectable solutions and oral formulations for livestock (poultry, swine, cattle) and pets.
• Treatment of Respiratory Infections: Used in medications targeting bacterial respiratory diseases in poultry (e.g., Mycoplasma gallisepticum) and swine.
• Treatment of Gastrointestinal Infections: Formulated for combating bacterial enteritis and related digestive tract infections in animals.
• Skin and Soft Tissue Infection Management: Applied in topical or systemic treatments for wounds, abscesses, and dermatological infections.
• Veterinary Generic Drug Manufacturing: Sourced by generic drug manufacturers for producing cost-effective therapeutic equivalents.
• Aquaculture: Potential application in treating bacterial diseases in farmed fish, subject to regional regulatory approvals.
• Research & Development: Used as a reference standard or building block in antimicrobial research and new drug development studies.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the original container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric humidity. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
