A study was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic efficiency of "Valsyn- Gel," a furaltadone-containing preparation, in the control of mastitic infections. Two hundred and thirteen quarters were randomly treated with the preparations used in the evaluation study. Treatment-efficiency percentages for Valsyn-Gel were 89.5, 78.9, 78.9, and 78.9 for 10, 19, 20, and 21 days posttreatment. Percentages for two other preparations, oxytetracycline and chlortetracyclinc neomycin, varied from 100 for the 10-day posttreatment check to 81.3 for the 21-day posttreatment observation.

Further studies on the evaluation of "Valsyn-Gel" were carried out, using both sterile and nonsterile preparations of this drug and comparing it with a drug of choice currently used in mastitis control. The object of the study was to obtain a clearer idea of the time-lapse between the treatment of a quarter until organisms showed again, by taking a series of samples of each treated quarter obtained consecutively at 3-day intervals up to 21 days posttreatment. Results showed that the therapeutic efficiency of the nonsterile product ranged from 86.4 percent 3 days after treatment to 63.6 percent 21 days after treatment. With the sterile product the efficiency ranged from 72.7 to 50.0 percent. The drug of choice, a chlortetracycline ointment, showed a higher efficiency than either of the two other products as evaluated. Nevertheless, it seems apparent that the preparations had a high therapeutic value for the first 9 to 12 days following treatment.

The treatment of mastitis is based mainly on the use of antibiotics. However, in recent times, an increase in resistance phenomena and the presence of residues in milk and their derivatives has been reported. Few studies have focused on the treatment of mastitis by homeopathy elsewhere or in Algeria. The objective of this current study aimed to clarify in particular the interest of homeopathy in the treatment of mastitis. The study was carried out on two dairy farms on a total of 14 cows located in Laghouat region (southern Algeria). Before the start of the experiment, a tolerance test was performed on two cull cows free from any apparent infection (except mastitis). Local and general reactions were noted at specific times. A total of 31 mammary quarters received 4 intramammary injections of a homeopathic preparation containing several natural products every 12h over 48h. A clinical examination and an analysis of the milk samples on D0, D7 and D14 were performed on all cows and the conclusion was made on the day 14. Data showed a very good tolerance to the homeopathic preparation and a 75% cure rate of the clinical mastitis. An improvement with a decrease in CMT score was also noted. In addition, healing rates of 51.85% for subclinical mastitis on D7 and 59.29% on D14 were also reported. Ultimately, homeopathy could, in some cases, represent an alternative to antibiotic therapy and bring an advantage to breeders. Further investigations should be performed in the future.
