Spectinomycin dihydrochloride pentahydrate (20 mg/kg; i.m.; 20-100 mg/kg; 9 d) shows the safety in healthy chicks[4].
Spectinomycin dihydrochloride pentahydrate (10 mg/kg; i.v.; single dose) has the major elimination pathway by renal excretion, approximately 55% is excreted into the urine in unchanged form[5].
