Author(s): Safeeda S Begum, Mokhtar Hussain, Sanjay Kumar, Sanjay Kumar Bharti and Mahmuda Malik
Abstract:
The present paper describes the case of Monday morning sickness or Azoturia in three draft Bhutia ponies and its successful treatment with the history of anorexia, anuria and reluctant to move since the previous two days of reporting. The animals were already treated for colic and lameness with no improvement in their conditions. One of the three ponies died soon after some time of being presented to the hospital, and post-mortem, history and other clinical signs revealed the condition to be Monday morning sickness. The animals were restrained and treated with Dexona, NSAID, muscle relaxant, phosphorous, fluid and balanced electrolyte therapy and multivitamin, along with the advice of a diet rich in fats and low in carbohydrates and very minimal exercise. After a month, the ponies showed uneventfully recovery.
