ProstaMate Sterile Solution (dinoprost tromethamine) is indicated in the following:
Cattle: is indicated as a luteolytic agent. ProstaMate is effective only in those cattle having a corpus luteum, i.e., those which ovulated at least five days prior to treatment. Future reproductive performance of animals that are not cycling will be unaffected by injection of ProstaMate.
- For estrus synchronization in beef cows, beef heifers and replacement dairy heifers
- For unobserved (silent) estrus in lactating dairy cows with a corpus luteum
- For treatment of pyometra (chronic endometritis) in cattle
- For abortion in beef cows, beef heifers and replacement dairy heifers
- For use with gonadorelin injection to synchronize estrous cycles to allow fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI) in lactating dairy cows
- For use with EAZI-BREED™ CIDR® (progesterone intravaginal insert) Cattle Insert for synchronization of estrus in lactating dairy cows
- For use with EAZI-BREED™ CIDR® (progesterone intravaginal insert) Cattle Insert for synchronization of estrus in suckled beef cows and replacement beef and dairy heifers, advancement of first postpartum estrus in suckled beef cows, and advancement of first pubertal estrus in beef heifers
Swine:
- For parturition induction in swine
Mares:
- For controlling the timing of estrus in estrous cycling mares
- For difficult-to-breed mares (clinically anestrous mares that have a corpus luteum)
