Treatment for Pinkeye
TREATMENT FOR PINKEYE:
A recent research at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine suggests that the antibiotic Nuflor is useful in the treatment of pinkeye in calves. The healing rates were 6.2 and 4.8 times greater in calves treated intramuscularly and subcutaneously, respectively. Treated calves also shed significantly fewer pinkeye bacteria than untreated controls. It was concluded that treatment with Nuflor by injections reduced corneal ulcer healing time, lessened the clinical severity and reduced the amounts of bacterial shedding from infected calves.
