Pharmacology
The branch of medicine concerned with the uses, effects, and modes of action of drugs. It involves understanding how drugs interact with biological systems to produce therapeutic effects.
Drug Dosage
The specific amount of a drug to be administered, often calculated based on animal weight, age, or physiological condition to ensure efficacy and safety.
Antibiotics
Agents that inhibit or kill bacteria. They are crucial in treating bacterial infections in ruminants and other livestock, with specific drugs like oxytetracycline and penicillins.
Anthelmintics
Drugs used to eliminate parasitic worms (helminths) from animals. They target nematodes, trematodes, and cestodes, with classes such as macrocyclic lactones and imidazothiazoles.
Anti-inflammatory Drugs
Medications that reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling. They are administered via intramuscular (IM) or intravenous (IV) routes, including NSAIDs like phenylbutazone and flunixin.
Hormones
Biological substances that regulate physiological processes. In veterinary medicine, hormones like GnRH, progesterone, and PGF2α are used to control reproduction and treat reproductive disorders.
