Post-weaning Diarrhea Control
- Inhibit E. coli fimbriae production.
- Prevent profit loss.
- Protect against post-weaning diarrhea (PWD).
Calm the E. coli Chaos
When fed according to label directions, Kavault® inhibits the production of E. coli pili, reducing its ability to attach to the gut wall and induce diarrhea.1,2,3 Set your weaned piglets up for success with strong E. coli management protocols.
As a result of protecting against enteric challenges*:
22-day post-weaning risk period for disease onset4
Kavault lowered diarrhea severity and incidence5
Kavault increased BW and ADG
Kavault increased feed conversion rate (FCR)
Kavault Reduction in Diarrhea Days6

Protect Against PWD
- Post weaning, incomplete immune systems leave young pigs vulnerable. A common cause of PWD in pigs, pathogenic E. coli-induced diarrhea, ranks among the most common diseases overall in global swine production.7
- As E. coli is contagious, all pigs should be treated.8 Kavault should be fed to pigs that are at risk of developing, but not yet showing signs of, diarrhea in the presence of E. coli.

The label contains complete use information, including cautions and warnings. Always read, follow and understand the label and use directions.
INDICATION:
- For the reduction in incidence and overall severity of diarrhea in the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli in groups of weaned pigs.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
- Feed at 73 grams avilamycin per ton of Type C medicated feed (80 ppm) as the sole ration for 21 consecutive days.
- The veterinarian may direct feeding for up to a total of 42 consecutive days, based on clinical assessment.
- Feed to pigs that are at risk of developing, but not yet showing signs of, diarrhea in the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
- CAUTION: Federal law restricts medicated feed containing this veterinary feed directive drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.
- No withdrawal period required when fed according to the label.
- To assure responsible antimicrobial drug use in pigs, do not administer to pigs 14 weeks of age or older or for more than a lifetime total of 42 days.
- VFD expiration date must not exceed 90 days from the date of issuance. VFDs for avilamycin shall not be refilled.
- Avilamycin has not been demonstrated to be effective in pigs showing clinical signs of diarrhea prior to the start of medication.
- Avoid inhalation, oral exposure, and direct contact with skin or eyes.
