"Metaphylaxis" in post-partum conditions in dairy cows with butaphosphone: a trial under South African conditions
Journal of the South African Veterinary Association
|December 1, 1980
Abstract:
Current literature on the prevention of the "parturition syndrome" in dairy cows using butaphosphone is summarised. A South African trial is recorded in which 2 pre-partum injections of the drug caused a significant reduction in the number of cases of parturition syndrome, as well as a marked reduction in intercalving period in the treated portion of the herd. No difference in lactation yield or culling rate was seen. The financial implication of the reduction in intercalving period is discussed.

3.0K
Tachyphylaxis is described as a rapid decrease in response to a drug after repeated or continuous administration of the same drug dose. It is a phenomenon where the body becomes less responsive to a particular substance or intervention over time, requiring higher doses or stronger interventions to achieve the same effect. It results from adaptive changes in the body's receptors, signaling pathways, or physiological processes that occur in response to prolonged exposure to a stimulus.

1.6K
Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
