Livestock Farming 0 views
Some pigs and cattle develop allergic reactions after being given streptomycin. If rescue treatment is not timely or not appropriate, it can cause death, just like penicillin allergy. Therefore, streptomycin use in pigs and cattle must not be taken lightly; after administration, observe the animals carefully and be prepared for emergency treatment. Streptomycin allergy in pigs and cattle mostly occurs acutely. With the first dose, the allergic reaction develops somewhat slowly, with symptoms appearing in about 10-15 minutes; with the second dose, the allergic reaction develops more quickly, with symptoms appearing in about 5 minutes. The main symptoms are: pigs and cattle tremble all over

Some pigs and cattle develop allergic reactions after being given streptomycin. If rescue treatment is not timely or not appropriate, it can cause death, just like penicillin allergy.

Streptomycin allergy in pigs and cattle mostly occurs acutely. With the first dose, the allergic reaction develops somewhat slowly, with symptoms appearing in about 10-15 minutes; with the second dose, the allergic reaction develops more quickly, with symptoms appearing in about 5 minutes. The main symptoms are: pigs and cattle tremble all over, have extreme difficulty breathing, suddenly collapse, have paroxysmal convulsions, show cyanosis of the visible mucous membranes, and respond slowly.

Rescue methods for streptomycin allergy in pigs and cattle: intravenous injection of 10% calcium gluconate injection, 50-150 milliliters per pig, 200-500 milliliters per cow; or intramuscular injection of chlorpheniramine injection, 1-2 milliliters per pig, 5-10 milliliters per cow.
