Dechra launches new guide to digital dermatitis

Dechra has announced the launch of a free guide and poster to aid vets with the treatment of digital dermatitis.

The Best Practice Guide to Digital Dermatitis booklet and A3 poster are designed to be shared by vets with anyone using the company's TAF Spray and Cyclo Spray in their treatment regime for this disease.

They both contain a step-by-step illustrated guide to successful treatment, with the downloadable booklet also containing additional information and frequently asked questions about digital dermatitis.

A highly contagious disease, digital dermatitis is a leading cause of cattle lameness, which is recognised as one of the most significant welfare and productivity issues in farming.

Emma Jennings, Dechra's brand manager, said: "We have developed these resources to help veterinary professionals provide an extra layer of support to their clients. A significant number of farmers are dealing with digital dermatitis in their herds on a daily basis."

TAF Spray is a next-generation antibiotic wound treatment featuring thiamphenicol, used for treating superficial wound infections in horses, cattle, goats, sheep and pigs. Cyclo Spray, meanwhile, can be used to treat superficial claw and hoof infections in sheep and digital dermatitis in cattle.
