Cosumix

Vetpac Animal Health is the biggest importer and distributor of Cosumix Plus in South Africa

Broad spectrum antibacterial that controls both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Cosumix Plus® has a dual mode of bacterial inhibition of both sulfachloropyridazine and trimethoprim reducing the rate of antibacterial resistance and is a useful tool for cost effective medication programs.

ACTIVITY

Cosumix Plus is a highly effective combination antibacterial with potent activity against:

  • E. coli – Colibacillosis and salpingitis
  • Salmonella spp. – Paratyphoid infection
  • S. aureus – Staphylococcal infections
  • P. multocida – Fowl cholera
  • H. paragallinarum – Infectious coryza
  • Rapid absorption of both active substances – peak serum levels within two hours, which ensures rapid onset of treatment.
  • Blood levels run in parallel to give maximum synergistic activity during therapy.
  • Improved solubility and tolerance of sulfachloropyridazine reduces the risk of side effects, e.g. nephro-toxicity commonly associated with other sulphonamides.
