[multi power]

How serious a problem is it ? How is best to deal with it?

I think Levafas Diamond was recommended to me for it. It’s on the up and not good news.

Zanil, we've had problems with it.

I question the slaughter results.....its in their intrest to condem. The smallest amount of damage and its condemned, but still sold?

Killed an old cow with Levafas Diamond. Wouldn’t stop scouring ! Mentioned it to vet and he said it had happened before. With Zanil the max dose is 105 ml. With L. D. the max dose is far higher (I don’t remember) even though they’re the same strength.

Be careful giving levafast diamond to close to calving, it can trigger milk fever due to the scour effect upsetting their levels

Beef cattle I know here but rumen fluke is a problem. The vet recommends 30mls per 100kgs, so 700kg cow gets 210 mls of Zanil.

Once cattle are above 350kg they get 105ml with Zanil, did ask vets about uping rate but got told to stick to 105ml.

Its an off label Vet recommendation for Paraphistome , rumen fluke.

Know a man gave a big bull double the max dose of zanil and it killed it
