Abomasal bloat

[O'Reilly]

Does anyone have any magic cures for this? Had buscopan and liquid paraffin as instructed, but not going down. Not bad yet, but.....
Thanks in advance.

Sorry can't offer any magic cures, it's always got sorted with buscopan here.

That's an interesting one, just wondering how it works? Thanks.

After I found an article on progressive dairyman, I did this, which worked quite quickly. Unless it took 3 hours for the buscopan and paraffin to work. Thank you.

Honest answer, not a clue
But enough on farm evidence from several people to be semi convinced
