dear expert in the house. currently I have a sick pig (grower). we have dewormed, given iron and multivitamins. all these were done yesterday. today, when we did not see any improvement, we injected it with oxytetracycline (L.A) 5ml. up till now it is not responding. it's not eating, it's not standing up. please what do i do. I contacted a vet doctor, she's the one who recommended L.A. please help.

how can you give a grower 5ml of LA?that is way too much. You should have given 1ml and repeat it after few days if no improvement is notice.give Bcomplex,also get glucose. You can also try choice meal that he likes

I hope I won't kill the pig with 5ml. I read the dosage on the drug.

what's the weight of the pig?

20kg but with its inability to eat the weight must have reduced. it has been inactive, I don't know what to do.

give feed that will attract the animal such as fishmeal and vegetables

thanks for your care. I got to the farm this morning I saw that the pig is still alive, I was advised to give B.Co to aid its appetite but the one I could lay my hand upon is the B.Co (injection) used by human being. I don't know if it can also work. I am a learner in this job, your advice is needed please.

Go ahead and give it the B.co for humans, it will work.
Next time try spread your injections; deworming and iron on the same day isn't the best.

Good, the Bco injection is ok, give 1ml first.
