The efficacy of hyperimmune serum in the treatment of sweating sickness

P T Oberem et al. Onderstepoort J Vet Res. 1985 Dec.

Abstract

Natural and experimental cases of sweating sickness were treated using a hyperimmune serum as specific treatment and hyperimmune serum combined with symptomatic and supportive treatment based on the clinicopathological changes observed in cases of sweating sickness. The treatment regimens were found to be highly effective in pigs and sheep as well as in calves, although recovery in the latter species was slower.
