Video: 2023 World Pork Expo: Elanco expands product portfolio

Dr. Jessica Risser, a senior technical consultant with the Elanco Swine Business Unit, recently spoke to The Pig Site’s Sarah Mikesell at the 2023 World Pork Expo in Des Moines, Iowa, USA.

“We've really worked on our portfolio this year and added quite a bit to it,” said Risser. “The first thing is Increxxa 25, which is a new addition to the portfolio. “

Elanco already had the Increxxa 100 milligram and now it has added Increxxa 25 which is an added benefit for producers. It is another injectable antibiotic with a different formulation that makes it easier for the producer to administer to younger pigs.
