But there’s more to Tylan Sulfa-G than just good disease control. Tylan Feed Medication (“The Feed/Money Saver”) is proven to boost a pig’s gam and feed conversion, and, in combination with Sulfa-G (sulfamethazine Granurolls) provides effective respiratory disease control. Now we give you the Tylan Sulfa-G Challenge: Compare it to your other starter/grower medications. We believe you’ll like what you see. For disease control, that might mean less coughing and sneezing, or a better slaughter check. As to resulting performance, Tylan Sulfa-G can mean faster gains on less feed, for more efficiency in practically all units. (Results of TRAC Clinics indicate that almost every herd has respiratory disease.) It all means a better return on your medication investment. The challenge to you is to try the product; the challenge to us is to deliver on our word: Tylan Sulfa-G really works. For more information, ask your feed man or Blanco representative about the Challenge. We're ready for you. 1 For lowering the incidence end seventy of Bordetalla bronchisapttca rhinitis 2 Caused by Pastaurella muftocida end Corynabactanum pyogenes Tylan' (tylosm Elanco) Sulfa G™ (sulfamethazine elliptical pellets Elanco) Westminster Livestock Auction Hagerstown, Md.
