Product name:
Anthiomaline injection
Composition:
Each ml contains:
Lithium antimony thiomalate – 60 mg
Indications:
Anthiomaline injection is a veterinary formulation used in the treatment of:
- Tropical nasal granuloma (schistosomiasis) in cattle
- Filariasis and leishmaniasis in dogs
- Papillomatosis (warts) in cattle and horses
Dosage & administration:
Route: Deep intramuscular (i/m) injection only
✅ Cattle:
- Nasal granuloma:
Administer 20 ml deep i/m, repeated 2 to 3 times at weekly intervals. - Papillomatosis (warts):
Administer 15 ml deep i/m, given 4 to 6 times at 2-day intervals. As warts begin to necrose, they should be surgically removed (enucleated), and the affected area should be dressed with an antibacterial agent.
✅ Horses:
- Follow the same protocol as cattle for papillomatosis.
- Ensure deep i/m injection only, as subcutaneous (s/c) administration may lead to local depigmentation at the injection site.
✅ Dogs:
- Start with 1 ml deep i/m, increasing gradually by 0.5 ml increments up to 2.5 ml, depending on the size and condition.
- Injections should be administered on alternate days, for a total of 4 to 6 doses.
Important note:
Always administer anthiomaline injection deep intramuscularly. Avoid subcutaneous injection to prevent local reactions or skin discoloration.
