Journal Title: Наукові доповіді НУБіП України - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

The article presents the comparative efficacy of various drugs for treatment of cows with digital dermatitis, known as "the disease of Mortellaro" or "strawberry disease". The problem of this pathology is associated primarily with the transfer of animal husbandry on an industrial basis and desire to acquire high quality products at minimum cost. Intensive use of animals, the growth of dairy herds with cows of the importation of foreign breeding leads to an increase in the number of animals with diseases of the distal limbs. Fingertip dermatitis or the so-called disease Mortellaro contagonist is an infectious disease that leads to the development of lameness in the animal. The occurrence of pain in the distal extremities of cows causes a decrease in appetite, reduced milk production, fertility, therefore, untimely or ineffective treatment often leads to a transition of the disease into a chronic form and the culling of highly productive animals. The article presents the results of an experimental study compared the effectiveness of treatment of digital dermatitis with the application of "Intra Repiderma" and other complex schemes, using "Chemi spray", Ichthyol ointment and iodoform powder. The use of both treatment regimens were effective, but the spray "Intra Repiderma" provided the recovery of the cows in a shorter time, is easy to use and saves time veterinarian and support staff.
