I see a 5 day calf with naval ill. Still acting very healthy but the tell tale swelling. Previously my vet said nuflor so I gave according to directions - 6 cc/100 sub q. Last time I had naval ill the vet said to repeat that every other day for 5 days but the calf I was treating seemed to go down hill with the extra nuflor more than the naval ill - which went down quite rapidly. The previous calf quit eating after the 2nd dose of nuflor and I had to tube it with electrolyte till it came back around. This time I'm inclined to stick with the label instructions and just see what this dose of nuflor does to empowering the calf to fight it off since she seems to be doing quite well otherwise as it is - and just keep an eye on the swelling and re-apply if I don't see progress.
