Mixing Directions:
Preparation of Type B medicated feed containing 3,856 grams per ton (4,250 ppm) tylvalosin: Prepare tylvalosin Type B medicated feed in mash form only. To manufacture one ton of Type B medicated feed containing 3,856 g/ton (4,250 ppm) tylvalosin, mix 50 pounds of Aivlosin ® 17% Type A Medicated Article with 1950 pounds of non-medicated feed.
