ECO Animal Health Group plc ("ECO") is pleased to announce that
it has received a marketing authorisation from the Drug Authority
of the Ministry of Health of Egypt for the use of Aivlosin® 625
mg/g water soluble granules in chickens laying eggs for human
consumption.
This approval allows ECO to start selling Aivlosin® in Egypt for
the medication of drinking water for the treatment of infections
caused by Mycoplasma in poultry laying eggs for human consumption,
with a zero day drug withdrawal period for eggs.
ECO has begun the process of submitting the EU approved
Aivlosin® regulatory files for the treatment of layers in numerous
other key egg producing markets.
Aivlosin®, ECO's patented antimicrobial, is used under
veterinary prescription for the treatment of a variety of
economically important respiratory and enteric (gut) diseases in
poultry and pigs.
Peter Lawrence, Chairman of ECO, commented "Egypt is the second
most important egg producing country in the Middle East and is
ranked just outside the global top twenty for commercial layers.
This latest approval demonstrates ECO's continued progress towards
becoming a major force in the international market for veterinary
pharmaceutical products for livestock."
