| Popis: |
After undergoing arrival processing at one of two commercial feedlots, feeder calves with clinical signs of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) were randomly assigned to receive either tulathromycin (2.4 mg/kg SC) or enrofloxacin (12.5 mg/kg SC). Additional therapy for calves that did not respond to initial treatment followed a prescribed course. Initial treatment with tulathromycin resulted in significantly higher (P = .009 and P = .031 at sites 1 and 2, respectively) therapeutic success (87.9% and 80%, respectively) than did initial treatment with enrofloxacin (70.2% and 62.5%, respectively). Animals treated with tulathromycin also had fewer subsequent treatments and higher weight gains compared with those treated with enrofloxacin. |
