I am treating a five year old pregnant ewe with Ketamalt and glycol-P. started today with 120ml twice on the glycol-p and 80ml twice with the ketamalt.
I think I am too late in treating the ewe for toxemia.
Is there any harm is giving both products at the same time?
If the ewe does not pull through the night it will be four days of not eating. .
Would appriciate any tips or experience in doing more for this ewe.
I don't know her due date. She is in the last two weeks or so of pregnancy.
thank you, Sally

It's unlikely that using both products at the same time may do any harm because these medicines contain only vitamins, minerals and propylene glycol.

Good morning Jeremy,
Thank you for email.
The ewe died. Doug and I cut her open to find four lambs. Two about 10lbs, two smaller about 5or6lbs.
When we think back and over. It is my error in not treating her with the Glycol and ketamalt two days earlier. She was mint condition tues eve. Wed am off her feed. I was lead to believe she was due any day.
I feel horrible and wish that I could turn back time. We could have put her out of misery sooner.
The two bigger lambs could have come out a few days ago but the smaller two looked like they had aways to go. The third one had no eyes. They all smelled the same. The ewe did not have a temp earlier. We will never know but my guess is her little body could not support four lives inside her.
The other two ewes have done it on their own. supporting perfect lambs on their own. I have one more Suffolk to go. She is a first time lamb. don't know her date. But will not take my eyes off her. The latest for her will be end of March.
She is big and strong.
