Ciprotyl Forte is LDI’s ciprofloxacin and tylosin product, sold as both a tablet and a water-soluble powder for bacterial infections in gamefowl and poultry.

What Is Actually In It

LDI lists Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride and Tylosin Tartrate as the active ingredients of Ciprotyl Forte, named on the manufacturer’s page across both the tablet and powder listings. LDI’s page does not carry a usable strength figure for either ingredient, so no per-tablet or per-gram amount appears in the fact table above. The ingredient names themselves are confirmed directly from the manufacturer.

What the Label Says It Is For

LDI’s tablet label states Ciprotyl Forte is “for the control of respiratory, gastrointestinal and urinary tract infections in gamefowl & poultry.” The powder label lists a longer set of conditions: Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD), Coryza, Infectious Bronchitis, Colibacillosis, Salmonellosis, Fowl Cholera, Clostridial Infections and Urogenital Tract Infections. Both lists are the manufacturer’s own indication text for the two forms of the product. See our antibiotics for chickens guide for general background on this category of product.

Forms It Comes In

LDI sells Ciprotyl Forte as a tablet and as a water-soluble powder. The tablet is dosed by bird class, half a tablet daily for cockerels and a full tablet daily for stags, bullstags and breeders, both for 7 days. The powder is dissolved in drinking water at 5 g per 4 L for 5 to 7 days.

Withdrawal Period

LDI publishes a withdrawal period of 12 days for Ciprotyl Forte, meaning 12 days should pass between the last dose and slaughter. The manufacturer does not publish a separate egg withdrawal figure.

What This Page Does Not Tell You

This page transcribes what LDI publishes about Ciprotyl Forte. It does not tell a reader whether a flock’s symptoms match any condition on either label, several of which produce overlapping signs that are difficult to tell apart without laboratory testing. Bring your flock’s symptoms to a veterinarian, an agrivet, or the local agriculture office before deciding on treatment.
