Study was conducted on 24 calves of one-week-age, randomly divided into four equal groups. First three groups were experimentally infected with E. coli and given treatment in various combinations. while group four was taken as uninfected untreated control. Results obtained on different parameters showed an overall lower (P0.05) creatinine in calves treated with antibiotic + electrolytes and those treated with electrolytes alone. Overall mean serum sodium, urea and immunoglobulins revealed non- significant difference, while pH, potassium and AP were lower (P0.05) in all treatment groups. Overall mean serum ALT was lower (P0.05) in calves treated with antibiotic + electrolytes, while AST was higher (P0.05) in calves treated with antibiotic alone than control group. Serum total protein and globulins were higher (P0.05) in calves treated with electrolytes alone than control group, while albumin was higher (P0.05) in all treatment groups. Significant relationship of serum sodium with ALT (r
