Common drugs
Puerperal period
Non- systemic puerperal metritis
Oxytetracycline: 2-5 gm daily for 3 days carefully infused intra uterine
Systemic puerperal metritis
Oxytetracycline: 2-5 gm daily for 3 days carefully infused intra uterine + parenteral
injection of Procaine penicillin G 9000 IU/kg body weight (IM)
Intermediate post partum period
Most uterine infections have been localised to the uterus and affected cows seldom
show signs of systemic involvement
Intra uterine infusion of oxytetracycline 2 gm for minimum of 3 days
Post ovulatory period
Chronic endometritis of the post ovulatory period is primarily the result of infections
with C. pyogenes and gram negative anaerobic bacteria and sensitive to penicillin
Intrauterine infusion of 10 – 15 lakh IU of procaine penicillin in saline for 3 days
PGF2α 25 mg for 9-10 days after estrus and repeated after another 10 days
