Posilac 500mg – Advanced Milk Production Support for Dairy Cows
Maximize Dairy Productivity with Posilac
Posilac 500mg (Sometribove Zinc) is an injectable recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) product developed to increase milk production in healthy lactating dairy cows. Designed for commercial dairy farming operations, Posilac helps producers improve milk yield, enhance production efficiency, and support dairy farm profitability.
According to manufacturer-reported research, healthy dairy cows supplemented with Posilac produce an average of 10 additional pounds of milk per day, delivering a consistent production response throughout lactation.
Each box contains 25 single-dose syringes, with 500mg of sometribove zinc per syringe.
Key Features & Benefits
- Increased Milk Production: Manufacturer-reported average increase of 10 pounds of milk per cow per day.
- Consistent Lactation Response: Milk production response begins with the first supplementation and is sustained throughout lactation.
- Improved Farm Profitability: Manufacturer-reported potential reduction of 3–5% in milk production costs, equivalent to approximately $0.50–$1.50 per hundredweight (cwt).
- Efficient Dairy Management: Helps producers improve milk output from their existing dairy herds.
- Convenient Single-Dose Packaging: 25 pre-filled syringes for practical handling and administration.
- Research-Backed Product: Supported by research on recombinant bovine somatotropin and dairy productivity.

Consistent Milk Production Response
Posilac is designed to support increased milk production throughout the lactation period.
Manufacturer-reported findings indicate that healthy cows supplemented with Posilac produce an average of 10 additional pounds of milk daily. This response begins after the first supplementation and can remain consistent throughout lactation when used according to label directions.
Although total herd milk production may fluctuate due to feeding, environmental conditions, herd health, and management practices, the manufacturer reports a sustained Posilac production response across lactations.
Individual results may vary.
Improve Dairy Farm Profitability
Increasing milk production efficiency is essential for successful dairy operations.
According to Union Agener’s reported data, Posilac supplementation may help reduce milk production costs by approximately 3–5%, or $0.50–$1.50 per cwt.
By supporting additional milk production from healthy lactating dairy cows, Posilac can contribute to improved dairy production economics.
Actual financial benefits depend on feed costs, milk prices, herd management, and individual animal response.
Milk Safety & Quality
Posilac has an extensive history of research and regulatory assessment.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has evaluated the safety of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST), including its use in dairy cattle and the safety of food produced from supplemented animals.
International scientific assessments, including those conducted through the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO), have also addressed the human food safety of rbST use.
Posilac should always be administered in accordance with its approved labeling, including all animal health warnings and precautions.
Supporting Sustainable Dairy Production
Improved milk production efficiency can help dairy producers increase output while making more efficient use of farm resources.
Research on rbST supplementation has examined its potential to reduce the environmental impact per unit of milk produced through improved productive efficiency.
By supporting increased milk yield from existing dairy cattle, Posilac can be part of a broader dairy management strategy focused on productivity and resource efficiency.
Recommended Usage & Administration
Posilac is intended for use in healthy lactating dairy cows.
According to the manufacturer, supplementation is administered every 14 days, beginning at 57–70 days in milk and continuing until the end of lactation.
Always follow the complete approved product label for dosage, injection technique, administration instructions, storage requirements, contraindications, cautions, and warnings.
Consult a licensed veterinarian regarding appropriate use within your dairy herd management program.
