Britishbull24 131 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 I know the tubes that are used for cattle are the best thing to put into cuts and punctures but which ones. I can get them from work but will any of them do the job? Like the ones to treat mastitis? Do you know any brand names I can look out for Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bootsha 1,306 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 amoximast, (tubes with amoxicillin for the treatment of mastitis in cows. Amoxicillin is an extremely good broad spectrum antibiotic.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Britishbull24 131 Posted January 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 That's the mastitis one isn't it. Wasnt sure if you could use that as I was always told to use the stuff to dry cows off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bootsha 1,306 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 mastitis is an infection of the teats / udders, thus needs treating with an antibiotic, the drying off quicker of a cow is merely an accelarant to speed up the process. Not sure whats in the drying up tubes, but if i had a working dog with working dog cuts, injuries for whatever reason, i would be more inclined to use the antibiotic one to prevent and cure any infection. But i'm no vet. Hope it helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
