The cows in T1 group were treated with Agrimin powder (Glaxo) @ 30 gram orally daily for 21 days and vitamin-A injection (Glaxo) 4 ml i/m on alternate day for 3 days. The cows in T2 group were given Prajana HS capsule (Indian Herbs) @ 3 capsules orally for two consecutive days and repeated the same dose on 11th and 12th day after first treatment.
