[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1006498, member: 17767"] To establish immunity; use the toxoid. To treat a non-immunized animal that has a risk of tetanus due to cut or puncture,etc.; use the antitoxin. I keep the toxoid on hand in individual dose vials by Colorado Serum. It requires 2 innoculations of 1 ml each. When I have an animal in the chute, I hit them with the toxoid on a pretty regular basis. The serum is cheap. About 2 dollars or less per innoculation. If you use the individual vials you avoid wasting unused serum. I start my calves on toxoid when I do the other Clostridial species which is at about 2 to 3 months of age. Tetanus is included in some of the clostridial serums such as the blackleg 8 ways etc. But be sure it says C. tetani is covered. Clostridial organisms can work fast. Seniors frequently get Clostridium difficile or C diff. It affects their digestive tract. It contributed significantly to the recent death of my father. [/QUOTE]
