Krka has announced the launch of Flovuxin®, a fast-acting acting, injectable solution for bovine respiratory disease (BRD) caused by Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Mycoplasma bovis and Histophilus somni, associated with pyrexia¹.
Flovuxin is a combined formulation of florfenicol and flunixin, which delivers effective treatment for bovine respiratory infections via a single dose. Manufactured by Krka at its European production plant, Flovuxin offers treatment efficacy combined with improved value to vet practices and convenience on farm.

Flovuxin’s combined formulation is a high efficacy BRD treatment acting within six hours2, to improve treatment outcomes.”
