StatusNot confirmed

We could not confirm this product's active ingredients from the manufacturer or from a label photograph. The composition below is therefore incomplete, and we have not guessed at it. Check the physical label, and ask your agrivet what is in it before using it alongside anything else.

We could not confirm this product's withdrawal period against the manufacturer, and we have not estimated one. Do not assume there is none. Ask your veterinarian or agrivet how long to wait before eating the eggs or the bird.

Tepox 48 is a water-soluble powder sold by Excellence against a range of bacterial infections in poultry, gamefowl and swine.

What Is Actually In It

Excellence’s product page does not name any active ingredient in Tepox 48. A product name is not a confirmed ingredient list, so this page does not attribute the treatment to any specific antibiotic compound. No amount or compound name was captured from the manufacturer, and none is stated here.

What the Label Says It Is For

Excellence states Tepox 48 treats “gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial organisms affecting the gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts.” For poultry and gamefowl, the manufacturer names Colibacillosis, Salmonellosis, Fowl Cholera and “other bacteria-sensitive diseases.” For swine, it names post-weaning diarrhea, E. coli, Hemophilus, pneumonia and Salmonellosis. That list is the manufacturer’s own indication text. See our antibiotics for chickens guide for general background on bacterial disease treatment in poultry.

Forms It Comes In

Excellence sells Tepox 48 as a water-soluble powder, in 1 kg packs, dissolved in drinking water at the manufacturer’s stated rate.

Withdrawal Period

Excellence does not publish a withdrawal period for Tepox 48. The absence of a published figure is not the same as a zero-day withdrawal. Confirm timing with a veterinarian or agrivet before slaughter or egg use.

What This Page Does Not Tell You

This page transcribes what Excellence publishes about Tepox 48. It does not confirm what the powder actually contains, and it does not tell a reader whether a flock’s symptoms match Colibacillosis, Salmonellosis, Fowl Cholera or another condition on the label, several of which can look alike without laboratory testing. Bring your flock’s symptoms to a veterinarian, an agrivet, or the local agriculture office before deciding on treatment.
