Product Description

For Growing Beef Steers and Heifers Fed In Confinement For Slaughter

As part of an aggressive implant strategy, REVALOR-200 increases rate of gain and improves feed efficiency in feedlot cattle.

Indications

This product contains trenbolone acetate and estradiol in a slow-release delivery system which increases rate of weight gain and improves feed efficiency in growing beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter.

Not approved for repeated implantation (re-implantation) with this or any other cattle ear implant in growing beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter. Safety and effectiveness following re-implantation have not been evaluated.

Do not use in beef calves less than 2 months of age, dairy calves, and veal calves because effectiveness and safety have not been established.

Do not use in animals intended for subsequent breeding, or in dairy cows.

Note

Revalor®-200 is not better for increased average daily gain or improved feed efficiency than Revalor®-H (140 mg trenbolone acetate/14 mg estradiol) in heifers fed in confinement for slaughter.

Studies have demonstrated that the administration of Revalor®-200 can result in decreased marbling scores when compared to non-implanted steers and heifers.

Dosage

One implant containing 200 mg trenbolone acetate and 20 mg estradiol is administered to each animal. The 10 pellets which make up the dosage of Revalor®-200 are contained in one division of the multiple dose cartridge. Ten doses are in each cartridge. The cartridge is designed to be used with a special implant gun.
