CYDECTIN PLATINUM DRIVES CATTLE GROWTH
Field trials conducted with Cydectin Platinum prove that using an effective combination drench can increase beef and dairy cattle weight gain and maximise return on investment.1,2
Cydectin Platinum delivers increased weight gain of up to 29 kg when compared to commonly used cattle drenches such as Dectomax®, Eprinex®, Cydectin® Pour-on, Acatak® Duostar, Ivomec®, and their generics.2,3
DUCK CREEK NSW - COMPARATIVE WEIGHT GAIN (KG) OVER 63 DAYS*
Using a highly effective combination drench will drive cattle growth.

SOUTH EAST QLD - TICK AND WORM PRODUCTIVITY TRIAL - WEIGHT GAIN (KG) OVER 42 DAYS*
Cattle can be clear of ticks, but any remaining worms can lead to weight loss.

TULLY FAR NORTH QLD - COMPARATIVE WEIGHT GAIN (KG) OVER 56 DAYS*
Cattle can be clear of ticks, but any remaining worms can lead to weight loss.

The dual-active killing method makes Cydectin Platinum highly effective against single and dual-resistant worms. The Moxidectin effect makes Cydectin Platinum effective against resistant and non-resistant cattle tick strains.1

Why are combination drenches the new standard for cattle?
A recent scientific article in the Australian Cattle Veterinarians (ACV) journal highlights the need to check that your weaner drench is effective. Drench resistance is widespread in Australia. 6-11,13
The benefit of drenching young cattle with a highly effective drench
Young growing cattle, facing a rising worm burden on pasture, can easily fail to reach their growth potential if an effective drench is not used.
