[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 136149, member: 852"] If I remember right...Triangle 9 is a vaccine and Quartermaster is a intramammary prescription antibiotic. Orbesol - isn't that a teat sealant? Just checked into Predef, out of curiosity. [url=http://pbs.naccvp.com/view_label.php?u=country&p=msds&prodnum=1049045]http://pbs.naccvp.com/view_label.php?u= ... um=1049045[/url] It's a prescription drug labeled for treatment of bovine ketosis, musculoskeletal conditions, shock, infections, allergic reactions...etc. Not labeled for drying off cows, and does state it can cause abortion in third-trimester cows. Now Salix, on the other hand - [url=http://pbs.naccvp.com/view_label.php?u=country&p=msds&prodnum=1106081]http://pbs.naccvp.com/view_label.php?u= ... um=1106081[/url] Is..."Salix™ is an effective diuretic possessing a wide therapeutic range. Pharmacologically it promotes the rapid removal of abnormally retained extracellular fluids. The rationale for the efficacious use of diuretic therapy is determined by the clinical pathology producing the edema. [b]Salix™ is indicated for the treatment of edema (pulmonary congestion, ascites) associated with cardiac insufficiency and acute noninflammatory tissue edema. Cattle: Salix™ is indicated for the treatment of physiological parturient edema of the mammary gland and associated structures.[/b] The administration of Salix™ is not recommended during the second trimester of pregnancy." From what I can tell from various postings...for beef cows, at weaning time, calves are pulled, cows preg checked and put out to pasture. No intramammary treatments like Tomorrow to prevent dry-cow mastitis, etc. Dairy cows are usually treated with something like Tomorrow, teat sealant put on, and cows are moved to the dry-cow herd. So yes, it is much different. :lol: Looks like neither Salix or Predef are really safe for drying off cows prior to calving, but may be OK after calving if needed. [/QUOTE]
