Prevention and treatment of yellow and white dysentery in piglets

Yellow and white dysentery of piglets is an acute infectious disease of newborn piglets caused by pathogenic Escherichia coli. If it is not treated in time, it can easily lead to the death of piglets and bring huge economic losses to pig farms and farmers. Today, the editor will share with you the symptoms and prevention and treatment of yellow and white dysentery of piglets.

Symptoms of yellow and white dysentery in piglets

1. Yellow dysentery of piglets: watery thin feces, yellow or grayish yellow, containing curd tablets and small bubbles. Sick pigs are thirsty, less breast-fed, dehydrated, emaciated, coma and exhaustion.

2. White dysentery of piglets: sudden diarrhea of piglets occurs one after another in the same litter, excreting milky white, grayish white or yellowish white, fishy, paste or pulpy feces. Piglets are lethargic, cold-feared, dehydrated, reduced or not fed, and sometimes vomited milk. In general, the condition of diseased pigs is mild and can be cured by timely treatment, but most of them form stiff pigs because of repeated attacks. In severe cases, they suffer from pig fecal incontinence and die for about a week.

Prevention of yellow dysentery in piglets

1. Do well the prenatal and postpartum management of sows and strengthen the nursing of newborn piglets.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine prevention (Sihuang Zhi dysentery granule), feeding sows after birth and purifying milk can effectively prevent piglet diarrhea; suckling piglets diarrhea can also be given to sows, which can effectively treat piglet diarrhea.

3. Western medicine prophylaxis, oral sensitive antibiotics within 12 hours after birth.

① synergistic sulfamethoxazine injection, 5 × l0ml. After birth, piglets were given 0.5m1 orally before eating colostrum for the first time, and then twice a day for 3 days. If sick pigs continue to take drugs, the dose will be doubled.

② gentamicin sulfate injection, each 10X2m1, 80, 000 IU. The piglets took 10 000 IU orally before eating colostrum for the first time after birth, and then took it twice a day for 3 days.

4. Microbial preparation prevention, such as promoting bacterial growth, regulating bacterial growth, Rukangsheng, Kangdabao, etc., inhibit Escherichia coli by regulating the balance of intestinal microflora of piglets.

5. The pregnant sows were vaccinated with the vaccine at 30 and 15 days before parturition, and the E. coli genetic engineering vaccine was selected. The trivalent inactivated vaccine of Escherichia coli K88, K99 and 987p or the bivalent genetically engineered inactivated vaccine of Escherichia coli K88, K99 and K99 were used to protect piglets through breast milk.

Prevention of white dysentery in piglets

Comprehensive measures such as antibacterial, antidiarrheal, traditional Chinese medicine to relieve internal causes of dampness and heat, improve immunity and make intestinal environment normal should be taken.

1. Stop dysentery: Sihuang Zhi Li granule, the preventive amount is 100g, the mixture is 300 jin, and the therapeutic amount is doubled for 5-7 days.

2. Antibacterial: apramycin, streptomycin, ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin, amoxicillin, Xieting. Such as: dysentery net per kilogram of body weight per oral 10~15mg, twice a day, for 2-3 days. Gentamicin sulfate was given orally to 5~10mg/kg body weight twice a day for 2 to 3 days.

3. Antidiarrheal: tannic acid protein. Aid digestion and absorption: maternal food, baking soda, pepsin and so on.

4. Rehydration: oral glucose, normal saline and multi-dimensional. The formula of glucose saline: 20g glucose, 3.5g sodium chloride, 1.5g potassium chloride and 2.5g sodium bicarbonate are added to 1000ml water.

5, prevention: vaccine prevention of poor efficacy, to prevent piglets yellow and white dysentery more effective way is the first day after birth oral enrofloxacin / oxytetracycline 0.5ml, the first three days in the piglets after breast-feeding will be driven into the incubator (delivery room must be equipped with incubator, and hanging heat preservation lamp and other ways to make the box temperature up to 35 degrees), 7-day-old oral enrofloxacin 1ml or intramuscular injection of oxytetracycline 1-2ml, in fact, heat preservation is the most important.
