Coughing, coughing, coughing and pink eye!!! HOGDOC!!!
Pigs with a persistent cough. 2 pigs have had an off and on cough for months. We treat with Draxxin they get better then they start coughing again. I don't remember when the last round of draxxin was given it was awhile back. Can I give it again? We also have another pig that has had pink eye which seems like FOREVER! I got some ointment from the vet and put it in until I ran out but her eyes are still really red! I need these pigs to get healthy and start putting on weight or I am going to be in trouble... 54 days until our fair.

Re: Coughing, coughing, coughing and pink eye!!! HOGDOC!!!
Coughing has been popular this year. I've talked to folks going through what you are. Not sure the fix yet. As far as the pink eye or "zombie eyes" as I call it, tissue all swollen around eye and red eyes. I used Penicillin. Just a cc or 2 directly in the eye. Cleared up over night. Now, make sure it's not environmental as well. We had a gilt that would get really red eyes if you left her pen go.
Good luck!
