This vaccine is used for providing protection against Lamb Dysentery, Struck, Pulpy Kidney, Braxy and Black disease in Sheep and Goats.
Enterotoxaemia disease is usually seen in animals of one to three months age, although it can affect them at any age. This disease is mostly observed in the months of May, June & July. The disease is more often observed when the animals graze in the fields of pea, barley and corn or they are given high grain ration with less volume of leafy material to graze. It can cause death in 10-20% animals. Any type of treatment cannot save the affected animals; therefore, it is necessary to vaccinate animals before the disease strikes them.
The flock of diseased animals should be given no feed for 2 days. Then give small volumes of grass for grazing increasing gradually. Grains and grazing in post harvest fields should be avoided.
