A comprehensive review of ceftiofur sodium and hydrochloride formulations for treatment of acute bovine foot rot.
Seven well-controlled studies conducted under multiple management conditions demonstrated that ceftiofur, a late-generation veterinary parenteral cephalosporin, is effective for the treatment of bovine foot rot in beef and dairy cattle. Two preliminary dosage titration studies using a challenge model compared the efficacy of ceftiofur (1.1 mg or 2.2 mg ceftiofur equivalents [CE]/kg administered...
متن کاملStability of Ceftiofur Sodium and Cefquinome Sulphate in Intravenous Solutions
Stability of ceftiofur sodium and cefquinome sulphate in intravenous solutions was studied. Chromatographic separation and quantitative determination were performed by using a high-performance liquid chromatography with UV-DAD detection. During the stability study, poly(vinylchloride) minibags were filled with a solution containing 5 mg of ceftiofur sodium or cefquinome sulphate and diluted to ...
متن کاملPhotodegradation Kinetics of Sodium Ceftiofur in Aqueous Solution Determined by LC Method
The stability of the broad-spectrum antibiotic ceftiofur was studied in order to investigate the kinetics of photodegradation of this drug, using a stability-indicating liquid chromatography (LC) method. The degradation was carried out in aqueous solutions, prepared from reference substance and two pharmaceutical products (Excenel and Topcef) containing sodium ceftiofur powder for injection, in...
متن کاملPulmonary pharmacokinetics of desfuroylceftiofur acetamide after nebulisation or intramuscular administration of ceftiofur sodium to weanling foals.
REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY Administration of ceftiofur sodium via nebulisation has been recommended for the treatment of bronchopneumonia in horses, despite the lack of pharmacokinetic and safety data. OBJECTIVES To compare concentrations of desfuroylceftiofur acetamide (DCA) in plasma and pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (PELF) of foals after nebulisation or i.m. administration of ceftiof...
متن کاملEfficacy of sustained release needle-less ceftiofur sodium implants in treating calves with bovine respiratory disease.
Three experiments were conducted to determine preliminary efficacy of sustained release needle-less implants in effecting cure in calves with bovine respiratory disease. One hundred and twenty beef calves with a rectal temperature > or = 40 degrees C and shallow or labored respiration and coughing were used in these experiments. Four groups (1-ceftiofur sodium injections [days 1, 2, and 3], 2-c...
