Abstract:Doxycycline is a therapeutic veterinary antibiotic commonly used in pig breeding. In this study, 27 fattening pigs of 33.5 ± 0.72 kg were divided equally into 3 groups. Doxycycline at 0, 3, and 5 mg/kg body weight was added to the feed in groups CK, L and H. The medication and withdrawal periods were set at 5 and 28 days. The results showed that the doxycycline average concentrations in groups L and H during the medication period were 117.63 ± 13.54 and 202.03 ± 24.91 mg/kg dry matter, respectively.
