Tylan® Soluble Powder should be administered as directed by veterinarian.  Powder is very bitter; it may be better administered by placing the powder into an empty gelatin capsule or cold butter.  It can also be compounded into a liquid.  Discuss administration options with your veterinarian.

Give the dose as soon as possible. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose, and continue with the regular schedule. Do not give 2 doses at once.

Your pet may experience lack of appetite and vomiting and diarrhea may occur.  If stomach upset occurs, try giving the medication with food.

If symptoms of diarrhea, vomiting and lack of appetite persist, contact your veterinarian. Other side effects may occur. If you notice anything unusual, contact your veterinarian.
