A herd of goats has recently experienced several animals with CNS signs including not herding with the group, appearing blind, and having anorexia and hypermetria. One goat had developed dorsomedial strabismus and teeth grinding; it went on to become comatose and had periodic tonic-clonic convulsions before it died. Postmortem reveals cerebrocortical necrosis (polioencephalomalacia). What treatment should be used on the next animal to appear with these signs?

Please select an option Incorrect. The disease has many factors, including dietary, that should also be addressed, but the single best treatment is to give thiamine. Convulsions can also be controlled by diazepam or phenobarbital. Thiamine should be diluted and given either SQ or very slowly IV. Incorrect.
