Intra Dysovinol: the first non-antibiotic treatment for swine dysentery

Dopharma is engaging in a partnership with Intracare. Intracare is a Dutch company with a wide range of animal care products and has been successful in the market already for many years. Recently they have obtained a marketing authorization in several European countries for a new animal health drug containing a specific patented formulation of zinc chelate: Intra Dysovinol.

Intra Dysovinol is effective in the treatment and metaphylaxis of swine dysentery caused by specific bacteria and is regarded as a non-antibiotic alternative. The use of zinc oxide in many countries is nowadays restricted as a supplement in feed. However, Intra Dysovinol as animal health product is still allowed to be used in many countries and therefor unique. Intra Dysovinol is an oral liquid to be administered through the drinking water of pigs.

Intracare has reconsidered the current distributors in a number of countries and came to an agreement with Dopharma for the Netherlands, Romania, Austria, Croatia, Malta and Luxembourg.

From the beginning of April 2021 the product will be sold in the above countries through Dopharma. Currently we are preparing our local sales organizations to promote this product in the market in cooperation with Intracare.

Intra Dysovinol is a valuable addition to our swine portfolio as a non-antibiotic treatment for this important disease. It will give us more opportunities to strengthen our position in this segment!product photo Intra Dysovinol
