[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1788239, member: 16453"] How heavy and age was your heifer? Most allergic reactions to drugs I have seen you would not have time to get them to the Vet. I have known horses to fall dead off the end of the needle with Procaine Penicillin. The oxytet seems to go dark once air gets in after you draw off the first dose. I haven't looked at the label recently but most drugs like that say that any left 30 days after breeching the bottle should be discarded, I know most people hang onto it much longer, I do and get away with it mostly. Even being an antibiotic there are plenty of contaminants that can multiply in there no matter how carefull you are drawing out the dose. What were you giving the dose for? Could that have contributed to her death especially after a trailer ride to the Vet? Things like pneumonia a trailer ride could tip her over the edge. If just 3 ml triggered an anaphylactic reaction I would expect her to be dead pretty much on the spot. Anyhow I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your calf and welcome to CT. Ken [/QUOTE]
