Merck Ralgro Implant is an anabolic agent for increased rate of weight gain and improved feed conversion of weaned beef calves, growing beef cattle, feeding beef cattle, feedlot steers and heifers. Each pellet contains 12-mg of zeranol; 36-mg (3 pellets) of zeranol is delivered with a single pull of the trigger. Zeranol is non-sex-specific estrogenic agent which can be used in both male and female calves, including replacement heifers—making Ralgro Implants the most versatile on the market.

Edema of the vulva and udder, teat elongation, rectal and vaginal prolapse, and signs of estrus may occur when heifers are implanted. Delayed testicular development may occur in young males.
To avoid difficulty in castration, young males should be castrated at the time of implanting.
A 23-trial summary showed an average 23-lb. weaning weight advantage (over 163 days) in calves implanted with RALGRO over non-implanted controls.
A single pull of the Ralgro gun trigger delivers the proper 36-mg dose (three 12-mg pellets per chamber).
For suckling steers implant at castration or later. Pastured growing steers implant at weaning or later. Finishing steers and heifers implant at arrival in feedlot.
Confine animal in a squeeze chute. Clean area prior to implanting. The implant should be deposited under the skin on the back side of the middle third of the ear. Fully insert the needle and inject the implant, it should be placed between the skin and cartilage, avoiding major blood vessels.
