Bimeda Sustain III Calf Bolus in this 50-count value pack is the preferred bulk solution for cattlemen and dairy farmers managing larger groups of young stock. You will find that these sustained-release antibacterial boluses are the ultimate “one-and-done” treatment for respiratory and enteric infections, specifically designed to stay active in the calf’s system for a full three days. This allows you to avoid the labor-intensive and stressful process of catching and re-treating sick calves daily. By delivering a fast-acting dose of sulfamethazine that reaches therapeutic levels in just six hours, it provides the immediate intervention needed to stop bacterial pneumonia or scours in its tracks.

You must verify that the calf is truly ruminating (usually over one month old and eating dry feed) before using these; otherwise, the bolus will not break down at the intended 72-hour rate. To ensure a smooth delivery, you should always lubricate the bolus with a bit of mineral oil or water before using a properly sized balling gun. This ensures it slides over the back of the tongue without causing throat irritation or trauma. Because sulfamethazine requires the animal to be well-hydrated, you must ensure that treated calves have constant access to fresh, clean water throughout the three-day therapy period. If you are treating a particularly severe case, a second dose can be given after the initial 72 hours, but do not exceed two consecutive doses to avoid issues with tissue residue.
