Oxtra DD is a bacteriostatic antibiotic with high bioavailability and a broad antibacterial spectrum that includes both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Oxtra DD achieves effective concentrations both in deep tissues and intracellularly. Oxytetracycline inhibits protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria by binding to the receptors on the 30S subunit, preventing the addition of amino acids to the growing peptide chain, thereby halting protein synthesis.
Thanks to its special formulation, Oxtra DD can be administered intramuscularly every 24 hours, either in a low dosage or in a higher dosage for prolonged action (in cattle, sheep, and pigs). Unlike most injectable oxytetracyclines, Oxtra DD can also be safely administered intravenously.

Aside from the lactating mare, the growing foal is the most demanding life stage in terms of nutrition. After foaling, the mare’s milk is perfect nutrition for the new foal that provides energy, protein and other essential nutrients to support healthy growth and development. After about two to three months, milk production begins to taper and additional nutrients will be needed by the foal to support his rapidly growing body. Young, growing horses seem to be able to adapt to a wide variety of nutritional management systems. The keys to any feeding program for developing horses is the same: to provide adequate, balanced nutrients and nurture a moderate, even rate of growth.
As is true for all mammals, the importance of the mother’s milk from birth through weaning is indisputable. While still nursing, a foal will relatively quickly take an interest in sampling forage. This early testing of forage will kick-start the development

Horse Vets work in all parts of the world, with all types of Equids: from million-dollar racehorses to the working donkeys and horses in Third World countries. The veterinary work focusing on working equines might not get a lot of coverage in magazines and journals, but that says nothing about the importance of the work.
