The effective treatment setting for calves with dyspepsia under production conditions

Cattle breeding is one of the most important sectors of agriculture. It provides more than 55% of total production. Cattle breeding plays a significant role in animal husbandry, as it produces almost all commercial milk and about 45% of the meat of its total production, as well as various types of raw materials for industry and valuable organic fertilizer for crop production. Diseases associated with digestive disorders, in particular dyspepsia occupy the leading place in pathology of young cattle. Especially severe and massive they are in calves up to 7 days old. These diseases may be observed in the first days of life, and the disease itself is characterized by the rapidity of the course. Significant economic damage is the loss of livestock, reduction of growth, the cost of organizing control measures, the lag in growth and development of young animals, who had contracted diseases, as well as the development of secondary diseases. The purpose of our study was to find the most effective method of treatment and prevention of dyspepsia in calves under production conditions. The object was calves aged from two to four days old clinically ill with signs of dyspepsia. Two experimental groups of 5 animals each were formed. The calves of the first group received the following drugs: hyrax, tetracycline, sulfetrisan, tetrahydrovit. The calves of the second group received antidiaryco, tetracycline, sulfetrim 48. We believe that for application under production conditions, the treatment scheme for calves of the first experimental group is more effective, which is confirmed by therapeutic and economic efficiency.
