Recent studies have shown that Mastitis & Lameness in dairy cows adversely affects milk
production and reproductive performance leading to an increased likelihood of culling at the
end of the season.
Treatment with anti-inflammatories alongside standard therapy can help to relieve the
inflammation and pain associated with both of these conditions, resulting in:
- Increased milk yields after healing:
- lower SCC and higher bacteriological cure rate,
- Improved Reproductive performance via higher conception rates,
- reduced risk of culling
- and fewer inseminations per conception.
- Current evidence certainly indicates that anti-inflammatories improve animal welfare and
minimise the longer-term negative economic impacts due to mastitis and lameness.
