Abstract

The article presents the results of studies to determine the therapeutic effectiveness of a veterinary drug based on oxytetracycline and flunixin in piglet bronchopneumonia in comparison with an analog drug. The test drug was ad-ministered intramuscularly twice with an interval of 5 days. Normalization of the condition occurred by the end of the second day from the start of treatment: in piglets, a decrease in body temperature, a decrease in the number of expira-tions and coughing, and an increase in appetite were noted. Clinical recovery of piglets of the experimental group oc-curred on the sixth – seventh day, and the duration of the disease was 6,9±0,9 days. The therapeutic effect was 93,11 %. In the piglets of the control group, relief was observed by the end of the third day. Recovery in the control group occurred on the seventh day. The duration of the disease was 7,6±0,4 days, the therapeutic efficacy was 89,9 %.
