-Disinfect Regularly With Iodine Solution(Pyodine,Tincture Iodine).
-Place Tag On Ear Of The Calf For Identification.

Pyrethroid Toxicity And Its Management;
(Insecticide,Acariside)

Pyrethroids Are Insecticides That Are Synthetic Modifications Of Natural Pyrethrins, Which Are Extracts From The Flowers Of Some Chrysanthemum Species.Commonly 2 Types Of Pyrethroids Are Used;Type 1 Compounds---Prethrin,Tetrametharin,Permethrin & Type 2 Compounds---Cypermethrin,Deltamethrin Ect.
Pyrethroids Have A Very High “Selective Toxicity” For Insects Compared To Mammals, Which Is Due To Higher Insect Nerve Sensitivity, Lower Mammalian Skin Absorption And More Efficient Mammalian Hepatic Metabolism. Traditionally, Pyrethroids Have Been Considered As Having Relatively Low Toxicity, Particularly When Compared To Organophosphate Insecticides. However Ingestion Of Concentrated Pyrethroid-Containing Products Can Cause Severe, And Occasionally Fatal, Effects.
Occurrence;
Mostly Pyrethroids Are Used Crop Insecticide As Well As In Livestock For Tick Control.Poisoning Occur When Fodder Sprayed With These Insecticide Are Consume By Animals Or By Skin Contact.E.G Flea Control Devices In Dogs And Cats.
Effects;
Pyrethroids Are Ion Channel Toxins That Interfere With The Function Of The Nervous System. They Modify The “Gating” Characteristics Of Neuronal Voltage-Sensitive Sodium Channels To Delay Their Closure,1 Thereby Prolonging Neuronal Excitation.
Clinical Signs;
Tremors,Incoordination,Prostration,Seizures And Death.
Dx
Based On Clinical Signs,History Of Exposure And Determination Of Insecticide Residue In Body Tissues And Fluids.
Rx
Mostly Quacks And Vet Asst Use Atropine Sulphate For Treatment Which Is Ineffective But May Also Increase Toxicity Due To Its Cns Stimulatory Effects.
If Ingestion Occur
Activated Charcoal In Slurry Form 1-2 Kg (PO) For Large Animals.(As Emesis Is Contraindicated In Bovine.)
Followed By Cathartics Sodium Sulphate Or Magnesium Sulphate 1g/Kg.(PO)
Seizures Control By Diazepam 0.2-2 Mg/Kg (IV)
Animal Should Be Washed With Soap To Prevent Further Absorption.
Don’t Use Vegitable Oils Or Fats Which Further Increase Git Absorbtion.
Further Supportive And Symptomatic Care Needed.
Consult Veterinarian As Soon As Possible.
