In mares oestrus will normally occur within 5 days of treatment followed by ovulation 2-4 days later. _Oestrus synchronisation: _when a group of cows at different stages in the oestrus cycle are to be synchronised, two injections of Prosolvin will be required with an interval of 10-12 days between injections. It is recommended that animals be serviced/inseminated at the oestrus following treatment, i.e. at 72 hours after the second injection. If doubleinsemination is preferred, this should take place at 72 and 96 hours after the second injection. _Treatment of sub-oestrus: _this condition is found in lactating cows at the peak of production. Animals may have normal cyclical ovarian activity, but may not show any outward signs of oestrus. Having confirmed the presence of a corpus luteum, treatment with Prosolvin will cause luteal regression followed by oestrus in 2-4 days. _Induction of abortion: _Prosolvin can be used to induce abortion in cattle and mares. Animals may be treated from 1 week and up Read the complete document
