Key points of medication-based health care for weaned piglets

?1. In light of actual conditions, focus on immunization against viral diseases such as porcine circovirus disease, porcine pseudorabies, and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome. Porcine pseudorabies vaccine is mostly given to piglets within 3 days of age by intranasal immunization and by intramuscular injection 10 days after weaning; porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome vaccine is mostly given to piglets at 7 to 14 days of age as the first intramuscular immunization; porcine circovirus vaccine is mostly given to piglets at 14 days of age as the first immunization, followed by a booster immunization one week later.

?2. Effective prevention of bacterial diseases. In clinical practice, sensitive antibacterial drugs such as enrofloxacin, ceftiofur, and amoxicillin are often chosen for health care. At weaning, each piglet needs intramuscular injections of "Hengweikang" (2 ml/piglet) and Saifu (1 ml/piglet) respectively; within 1 week after weaning, add 500 g of Lino and 500 g of Hengyankang per ton of feed, mix evenly, and administer in a concentrated manner for 7 consecutive days, so as to effectively relieve weaning stress in piglets and control conditional bacterial diseases secondary to stress (such as Escherichia coli diarrhea, streptococcosis, and Haemophilus parasuis disease, etc.).
