ECO is pleased to announce that it has received an official maximum residue level (MRL) for Aivlosin® (tylvalosin) for poultry eggs from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use at the European Medicines Agency.

It underlines ECO’s continued commitment to being a major force in the international market for veterinary pharmaceutical products.”
