SYNOVEX S implants increase rate of weight gain and improve feed efficiency. One implant (eight pellets) is administered to each steer by subcutaneous implantation in the middle third of the ear. SYNOVEX S implants contain two steroid hormones, progesterone and estradiol benzoate. SYNOVEX S helps speed up the steer’s weight gaining mechanism and help produce higher weight gains per kilogram of feed. For additional improvement in rate of weight gain in steers fed in confinement for slaughter, may be used as part of a re-implant program where an initial Synovex C or S implant is followed at approx 70 days by Synovex S. Each dose contains 200 mg progesterone and 20 mg estradiol benzoate. Contains 200 mg of progesterone and 20 mg of estradiol benzoate. For increased weight gain and improved feed efficiency. Recommended for use in steers weighing 400 lbs or more.For subcutaneous ear implantation only. Implant complete contents of one cartridge cell (one implant) per steer.

Implants

Synovex S (progesterone and estradiol benzoate implants) is recommended for use in steers weighing 400 lbs or more.

When properly administered, Synovex S implants increase rate of weight gain and improve feed efficiency. Do not use in veal calves. Effectiveness and animal safety in veal calves have not been established.

Store at controlled room temperature 20°-25°C (68°-77°F) with excursions between 15°-30°C (59°-86°F). Avoid excessive heat or humidity.


WARNING

Not for use in humans. For animal use only. Implant pellets in the ear only. Any other location is in violation of federal law. Do not attempt salvage of implanted site for human or animal food.

A withdrawal period has not been established for this product in pre-ruminating calves. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal.


CAUTION

Bulling, rectal prolapse, ventral edema and elevated tailheads have been occasionally reported in steers administered with Synovex S implants.

Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children.

Restricted Drug (California) - Use Only as Directed.

DIRECTIONS: Implant complete contents of one cartridge cell per steer. Approved implantation technique is fully described in the package insert.

NOTE: Never sacrifice careful, clean technique for speed of implantation.




STEP 1 Loading the Applicator


Load the applicator following the directions outlined in the instruction manual accompanying each applicator.

Additional information for the individual applicator user guides can be found at: www.growwithsynovex.com.

STEP 2 Restraint


The animal must be confined in a restraint mechanism (squeeze chute or head gate). The implant site on the back of the ear should be prepared by scrubbing with a firm bristled brush that has been soaked in a germicidal solution.

Note: If implanting horned cattle, greater safety is provided when the head is controlled by the use of a bull lead (nose tongs).

STEP 3 Implant Site


Divide the ear into three imaginary sections as illustrated. The implanted pellets should be deposited in the center one-third of the ear as shown. To accomplish this, the applicator needle should be inserted in the outer one-third of the ear as indicated by the “X” in the illustration. Implanting too close to the head may cause abnormal sexual behavior. Care should be taken to avoid severing the major arteries of the ear.

STEP 4 Insert Needle


Grasp the ear with one hand. While holding the applicator firmly with the other hand, penetrate the skin at the point shown by the “X”. Thrust the needle under the skin taking care not to penetrate the cartilage. Ease the applicator forward (toward the base of the ear) until the full needle length is beneath the skin.

STEP 5 Pellet Implantation


When the needle is completely inserted, activate the instrument by squeezing the trigger completely. Refer to instructions for individual applicator.

STEP 6 Inspection


Check the implant site. If properly administered, the implants should lie in a straight line under the skin.

Re-cock the applicator. Disinfect the applicator needle in a germicidal solution. The applicator is now ready to implant the next animal.
