Description
Tetanus Antitoxin
Administration of Tetanus Antitoxin is recommended for use whenever a non-immunized animal, or one whose immune status is unknown, suffers a deep penetrating wound that has or may become contaminated with soil. It provides quick but short-term protection.
Antitoxin may also be administered to animals following castration, docking, and other operations performed on premises upon which tetanus infection has been a problem.
Vaccination with tetanus toxoid is recommended for healthy domestic animals not infected with tetanus, to establish an active immunity for prevention against disease. Consult with a veterinarian for specific vaccination recommendations.
Provides immediate passive immunity that lasts 7-14 days.
For prevention in horses, cattle, swine, and sheep: 1,500 units IM or SQ. (1500 units = 1 single dose.)
For treatment:
Horses and cattle: give 10,000 to 25,000 units
Sheep and swine: give 5,000-12,500 units.
Also approved for Goats:

"Grreat size for multiple horses"
Nice to find this in a bigger size so that it can be administered to multiple horses at once.
-
"Must have"
A must have on hand. We use this when wethering our male goats. Also if a goat gets an injury that would make it susceptible to tetanus and we are unsure of vaccinations, this would be a good thing to give.

"Excellent product and price"
A must-have product when it is time to disbud, castrate, or for any serious flesh wound. This is not a vaccine, but a prevention of disease. Reasonable price for an excellent product!
