| Disease Description |
In diarrhoea, the intestine fails to adequately absorb fluids, and/or secretion into the intestine is increased. Loss of fluids through diarrhoea produces dehydration and the loss of certain body salts. Diarrhoea causes a change in body tissue composition and severe depression in the animal. |
| Disease Control |
Depending on the cause of diarrhoea, treatment options may include responsible use of antibiotics or anthelminthics, anti-inflammatories, rehydration fluids, vaccination, mineral supplementation and ration management. Note that antibiotics are only useful if the cause is a bacterial infection. |
| Disease Prevention |
Prevention. Identifying the cause of diarrhoea in the herd will allow you to make a sound plan about how to prevent or minimise the effect. This can include reviewing rations, grazing plans, worm management and biosecurity practices. |
| Precautions |
|
| Procedure of Use |
For the treatment of diarrhoea in animals, cut the bark of arjuna tree (Terminalia arjuna), bark of tamarind tree (Tamarindus indica) and bark of silk cotton tree (Bombax ceiba) into small pieces and then crush it properly. Soak this crushed mixture in the water for one hour. Filter the mixture through a cloth. The filtrate thus obtained is then drenched to the animal. Drench the dose of 250 g of this concoction twice a day for two days. This cures the diarrhea in animal completely.
This is traditional practice learnt from forefathers. |
| Etiology Causative Agent |
Infectious causes include: worms. viruses (e.g. bovine viral diarrhoea virus) bacteria (e.g. Salmonella or Yersinia - see the Bacterial diarrhoea heading below) |
| Global Context |
Spread world wide |
| Lesson Implication |
Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is most common in young cattle (6–24 mo old). ... distinguished from other viral diseases that produce diarrhea and mucosal lesions. |
