Abscess from Banamine given Intramuscularly
This horse was feeling a bit dumpy and wasn’t interested in eating grain. Based on
her discomfort she was administered Banamine (Flunixin Meglumine),
intramuscularly, as labeled on the bottle. The following morning she was still
feeling under the weather and was evaluated on emergency. Her biggest problem
at that time was a fever of 104°F and no appetite. The following day she
developed a large swelling over the right side of her neck. Read the full case

Farley
Farley, an 8 month old miniature donkey was found out at pasture unwilling to
bear weight on his right hind leg. In addition, there was a small amount of dried
blood near his right hind foot. Farley has two other playmates and neither
showed signs of injury. When Dr. Stone evaluated Farley the following day he
was bright eyed and full of spunk. However, on further examination it was
determined that the dried blood had originated from the right hind toe. Farley
was missing his entire hoof capsule, to our surprise! Read the full case
