PURPOSE:To provide a drug containing vegetable sterol as an active component and useful as a remedy and preventive for bovine lipomatosis. CONSTITUTION:The objective drug contains a vegetable sterol (e.g. stigmasterol, ergosterol, etc.) as an active component. The bovine lipomatosis is a lethal disease caused by the swelling of the adipose tissue in the abdominal cavity which presses and disorders the digestive tracts, uterus, kidney, etc. resulting in the sympotoms such as anorexia, constipation, etc. The vegetable sterol was found to have remedying and preventive effects to the disease. The drug is usually used by directly mixing a vegetable sterol or crude vegetable sterol to a feed or by dispersing the sterol in a diluent and adding the dispersion to a feed. The bovine lipomatosis can be cured at a dose of 0.5-60g/day per an adult cattle, and prevented at a dose of 0.05-6g daily. The drug has another advantage of low toxicity. |
