Abstract
This research is based on the field trial hence; all the
treatments were randomly carried out in the field animals
without selection but recorded properly. A total of 495 animals
suffering from clinical mastitis were used for the study. All
the animals were categorized according to their clinical
conditions of udder as oedematous but not fibrosed, fibrosed,
bloody milk and watery milk. All the affected animals had either
one or more than one quarters involved. All the animals were
basically treated with higher antibiotics with little success,
therefore 361 animals out of 495 were treated with Tetasule@ a
homeopathic medicine along with higher antibiotics as routine
and rest 134 animals were considered as control but treated only
with antibiotics. Out of 361 treated cases of clinical mastitis
345 (95.56%) cases recovered completely. All the animals in this
treated group provided more than 90 % recovery rate. Maximum
recovery was recorded in the cases having watery milk and mostly
one or two quarters were affected followed by oedematous and non
fibrosed, bloody milk and lastly fibrosed, where as in control
group except oedematous significantly lower than (50%) recovery
rates were observed.
