Great product and should be in every private practice. Storage is much more convenient and shelve life much better than conventional anti-venom products.

Snake bites can be life-threatening, and with the current national shortage of snake antivenom, securing stock is more important than ever.

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Contact your nearest Biofarm branch today to enquire about EchiTab-ICP vials: https://biofarmcc.co.za/contact-us/

EchiTab-ICP, for animal use only.

Emergency Pet Care: Be Prepared When Minutes Matter!

Your pet can't tell you when something's wrong, but having these essentials on hand could save precious minutes when they matter most. From unexpected accidents to sudden illness, being prepared isn't just responsible—it's an act of love for your furry family member.

Swipe through to see Dr Lynn Mildenhall of TAH Kenridge's emergency supply list:

🐾Save your emergency vet’s number so that you can contact them for advice or let them know you are on your way so that they can be prepared for your arrival. Make sure your lead or carrier and blanket are easily available to transport your pet in an emergency.
🐾Diomec or protexin and great over-the-counter remedies for pets with diarrhoea. Probiotics like Probivet or Protexin can also be added to help settle upset tummies.
🐾Electrolyte supplements like Prolyte or Oralade will help to keep a pet that isn’t eating or drinking hydrated.
🐾 Laxatives like Laxapet can be kept on hand for a constipated pet.
🐾 Use an antibacterial ointment such as Dermavet, Bactroban or F10 ointment or efficient wound for the treatment of small wounds.
🐾 A small dressing and bandage to cover up a small wound.
🐾 Activated charcoal (such as Duotox) can help with toxin ingestion. Please check with your vet first to make sure it is safe to administer.
🐾 An eye wash (Kyron or Effivet) or sterile saline to rinse out an irritated eye.
🐾 Ear rinse such as Epiotic or Oticlear for an irritated ear.
🐾 A pair of examination gloves for your hands when treating wounds or handling potential toxins
🐾 Thermometer to check your pet's temperature.
🐾 An antihistamine like Allergex in case of insect stings - please check with your vet before administering!

Don’t administer any human medications without checking with your vet. We often see pets poisoned with medication given by owners as not all medications are safe for your pet and giving the correct dose is important.

HEALTH TIPS FOR TODAY.

This could be the most important thing you see me post! It’s an epidemic this year, and these things are as lethal as a poisonous snake in the wrong senerio! Please not only read it but share it! Make sure we get the word out about these tics and the disease they carry!

It’s summer time! Time for camping, hiking and playing outside. Don’t let those pesky pesky ticks stop you. Here’s how to with a simple homemade solution!

Repellent for your pets:

For pets, add 1 cup of water to a spray bottle, followed by 2 cups of distilled white vinegar. Ticks hate the smell and taste of vinegar, and will easily be repelled by this ingredient alone. Then add two spoons of vegetable or almond oil, which both contain sulfur (another natural tick repellent).

To make a repellent that will also repel fleas, mix in a few tablespoons of lemon juice, citrus oil, or peppermint oil, which will repel any ticks and fleas while also creating a nice-smelling repellent. Spray on the pet’s dry coat and stay away from sensitive areas including eyes, nose, mouth and ge****ls. If outdoors for an extended period, spray this solution two to three times a day.

For you and your family:

Mix 2 cups of distilled white vinegar and 1 cup of water in a nozzle bottle. To create a flavorful solution so you don’t smell like bitter vinegar all day, add 20 drops of your favorite essential oil.

Flower oil is a calm, soothing scent that also works as a tick repellent, while pepperment and citrus oils give off a strong, crisp-fresh scent that also repels ticks.

After the solution is mixed, spray on clothes, skin and hair before going outside. Reapply every four hours to keep ticks away, and examine your skin and hair when you are back inside to make sure there are no ticks on the body.

If you have ever shared something, please click share on this! WE must spread the word about the dangers of ticks and how to prevent them!

Rabies in seals has been confirmed in our local waters, posing a serious risk to pets and beachgoers this summer. Here’s what you need to know to keep your furry friends safe:

1️⃣ Act Immediately: Wash the bite wound thoroughly with soap and water for at least 15 minutes.
2️⃣ Seek Veterinary Attention: Contact your vet immediately.
3️⃣ Vaccination Status Check:

If your dog is fully vaccinated, your vet may recommend a booster and observation.
If your dog’s vaccination is overdue or incomplete, they may need immediate tests and a strict quarantine period.
⚠️ Beach Safety Tips
✔️ Keep your dog on a leash near the shoreline.
✔️ Avoid letting your pet approach seals, alive or deceased.
✔️ Report any sick or unusual seal behavior to local authorities.
✔️ Carry your vet’s emergency contact details.

Together, we can ensure a safe beach season for everyone! 🌞🐕 If you have questions, feel free to DM us or contact our clinic.
