Indications
For parturition induction in swine
What Is It For?
LUTALYSE® is for inducing parturition in swine to help improve production efficiencies at farrowing.
Dosage and Administration
For parturition induction in swine: For intramuscular use for parturition induction in swine. LUTALYSE® is indicated for parturition induction in swine when injected within three days of normal predicted farrowing. The response to treatment varies by individual animals with a mean interval from administration of 2 mL LUTALYSE (10 mg dinoprost) to parturition of approximately 30 hours. This can be employed to control the time of farrowing in sows and gilts in late gestation.
Management considerations: Several factors must be considered for the successful use of LUTALYSE for parturition induction in swine. The product must be administered at a relatively specific time (treatment earlier than three days prior to normal predicted farrowing may result in increased piglet mortality). It is important that adequate records be maintained on (1) the average length of gestation period for the animals on a specific location, and (2) the breeding and projected farrowing dates for each animal. This information is essential to determine the appropriate time for administration of LUTALYSE.
How Does It Work?
LUTALYSE® (5 mg dinoprost/mL) is a sterile solution containing the naturally occurring prostaglandin F2 alpha (dinoprost) as the tromethamine salt.
