• Indication:

Metrikim is indicated for the treatment of subacute and chronic endometritis in cows (at least 14 days after parturition ) caused by bacteria sensitive to cephapirin. Important endometritis pathogenes sensitive to cephapirin include actinomyces (coryne bacterium ) pyogenes and anaerobic bacteria such as fusobacterium necrophorum and black pigmented gram negative anaerobes.

Metrikim can also be used to treat repeat breeder cases ( more than three unsuccessful in seminations ) if bacterial infections are suspected to be the cause of the fertility problem.
