The active substance of Zactran, gamithromycin, is an antibiotic of the macrolide group.

When using ZACTRAN for metaphylaxis of BRD, the presence of the disease in the herd should be established first.
ZACTRAN can also be used metaphylactically which means to treat at the same time both diseased cattle and those clinically healthy cattle in close contact with them, to prevent them from developing clinical signs and to prevent further spread of the disease.
For the treatment of BRD, ZACTRAN was studied in comparison to another macrolide antibiotic(tulathromycin), in cattle already affected by the disease.
