What is tylosin used for? 

Tylosin (Tylan®) is an antibiotic and bacteriostatic feed additive used in veterinary medicine. It has a broad spectrum of activity against Gram-positive organisms and a limited range of Gram-negative organisms. It is primarily used in chickens, turkeys, swine and small mammals to treat diarrhea and inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract.

Is tylosin better than metronidazole? 

Tylosin is safe for long term use and provides a good alternative to Metronidazole, another bowel anti-inflammatory/antibiotic that is not as amenable to long term use.

How much tylan do I give a chicken? 

Chickens should be treated for three days. However, treatment may be administered for one to five days depending upon severity of infection. Treated chickens must consume enough medicated water to provide 50 mg per pound of body weight per day. Only medicated water should be available to the birds.
