I currently have a three year old heifer/cow that has a chronic lung problem. She got pnemonia about a year and a half ago along with bloat and was 99.9% dead. Well she survived and seemed fine so we turned her out with some brood cows. (My boyfriend raises beef cattle in CA). Then about six months later she got sick again, only this time nothing seems to help her. We give her Nuflor (sp?) every month and for a few days she is better. But then the labored breathing and coughing starts again. A friend (who knows nothings about cattle) told me she saw on the news where the FDA just approved a drug for cattle that is used in humans for respriotory problems. I have tried but cannot find out what it is anywhere. Does anyone know about this drug, what it does. She is an angus but born a dwarf and was headed to slaughter until I made a pet out of her, so I would really like to find something that might help her live more comfortably. Any help or advice is appreicated.
