“…The G20 treatment was intermediate. Our results agree with those of Martins et al (2020), with intramammary After a complete treatment with antibiotics there was still the presence of Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus uberis (Fig. 1A), which would indicate that these bacteria already have resistance to the antibiotic used.…”

This research communication paper addresses the hypothesis that the use of therapeutic alternatives for mastitis, such as intramammary ozone, can cure the disease with lower costs and without harmful residues for human consumption and without formation of microbial resistance like the ones caused by indiscriminate use of antibiotics in dairy farms. The study was performed in 36 mammary quarters from 12 dairy cows with subclinical mastitis grade three. The experimental units were randomly assigned into four groups and each group received a treatment. Treatments comprised (a) 20 μg/ml ozone gas; (b) 40 μg/ml ozone gas; (c) negative control treatment of 12.5 μg/ml ozonated saline and (d) positive control treatment of 100 mg of cephalexin + 100 mg of neomycin + 10 mg of prednisolone, all by intramammary injection. In all quarters, milk was collected before and after the application of treatments for California mastitis test and evaluation of milk composition, somatic cell count, and bacterial cultures. The results indicated that the use of intramammary ozone did have a therapeutic effect, and whilst this was less than that of antibiotics, ozone does confer some advantages. Treated milk had a good composition, the treatment cost was low, milk withdrawal may not be necessary and there is no risk of antibiotic resistance.

“…The improvement in the condition of the affected animals, and consequently in the quality of the milk, from the use of homeopathy was evidenced in the present study, with a lower SCC in the group treated with the homeopathic complex compared to the placebo group on day 60. The results are similar to those found in the literature, 29 30 noting that oral supplementation with homeopathic complexes promotes a significant change in the SCC of lactating cows, with a decrease in SCC in the treated group. This is also consistent with benefit seen for other homeopathic treatments.…”

“…28 Thus, two biotherapies ( S. aureus and Streptococcus spp) were selected for inclusion in the novel homeopathic complex as the main etiological agents of mastitis. 29 30 In addition, the homeopathic medicine Ignatia amara was selected due to its affinity with stress conditions. The other medicines used in the homeopathic complex were selected based on their affinity for problems with lactation, including hard, swollen, painful and congestive teats ( Lac vaccinum defloratum , Phytolacca decandra , Urtica urens ); fistulous abscess and increased milk production ( Pulsatilla nigricans ); or inflammatory and infectious processes ( Calcarea carbonica , Asa foetida , Sulphur ).…”

Impact of a Novel Homeopathic Complex Medicine on the Management of Multiple Antibiotic-Resistant Bovine Mastitis: An Open-Label, Non-Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial

et al. 2023

Background Bovine mastitis is characterized by an inflammatory process in the mammary gland and represents one of the main diseases affecting a dairy herd. Management of mastitis is most commonly via antibiotics, but the rising incidence of multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) means that additional options are needed. Homeopathic products can be administered in dairy farming for a range of clinical reasons and may be preferential due to the absence of residues. Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the potential of a novel homeopathic complex medicine in managing bovine mastitis. Methods Twenty-four lactating Holstein cows with mastitis were divided into two groups: the homeopathic complex group received a homeopathic complex daily for 60 days at a dose of 20 g/d; the placebo group received the calcium carbonate vehicle without homeopathic medicines at the same dose and repetition. The main outcome measure was somatic cell count (SCC; cells/mL), with additional outcome measures including milk production (kg/d), milk constituents (percentage of protein, fat, lactose and total milk solids), and serum levels of cortisol, glucose, ammonia and lactic acid. All outcomes were measured at the beginning of the study and after 30 and 60 days. Milk samples were also collected from all animals at the beginning of the study, confirming a high (>0.2) MAR index for isolated bacterial cultures. Results Assessment of SCC showed a statistically significant difference favoring the homeopathic complex versus placebo group at day 60. A reduction in serum cortisol levels and an increase in fat, lactose and total milk solids in animals treated with the homeopathic complex at day 60 were also seen. Other outcome measures did not show statistically significant inter-group differences. Conclusion The results of this non-randomized, open-label, placebo-controlled trial suggest the potential for a novel homeopathic complex medicine in management of multiple antibiotic-resistant bovine mastitis, thus offering dairy farmers an additional option to antibiotics and making dairy products safer for consumer health and milk production more sustainable.
