I happend to be looking through my pile of drugs in the fridge in preparation for kidding this spring, and noticed that my bottle of CD&T has the statement: "Dispose of any unused portion after opening" or something to that extent. It's the Bar-Vac brand. I opened it last summer for vaccinating one kid, and the exp date is 2002. Is this stuff no good now because I drew one dose out and then stuck it back in the fridge?!! I'd hate to throw 48 cc's away just for nothing. I'm going to be re-ordering drugs, and kidding supplies soon, and just wanted to get some insite for the experts!
One last thing - what is you vaccination sched. for your kids after birth - I know to give the doe CD&T booster shot at least 4 weeks before kidding, and then when the kid is born give them a dose.. then how many weeks before repetition? Just want to get some imput from others. I know that everyone's program is different.
Thanks,
