Zoetis has announced Synovex One Grower as the new trade name for the long-duration cattle implant producers have known as Synovex One Grass. The name Synovex One Grower represents the newly expanded label for use in both pasture cattle intended for slaughter and also in feedlot cattle, as recently approved by the U.S. inFood and Drug Administration’s Center for Veterinary Medicine.
“This implant is now labeled to provide up to 200 days of increased daily gain in steers and heifers on pasture and in feedyards,” said John Hallberg, DVM, PhD, U.S. director of regulatory affairs, Zoetis. This means that, effective immediately, and until Synovex One Grower is available from animal health product suppliers, cattle producers can use existing packages of Synovex One Grass in feedlot steers and heifers on grass or in the feedlot.
