SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Special precautions for use in animals
For systemically administered broad spectrum cephalosporins (3
rd
and 4
th
generation, such as
ceftiofur), it should be reflected that these are to be reserved for
the treatment of clinical conditions
which have responded poorly, or are expected to respond poorly, to
less critical antimicrobials.
Increased use, including use of the product deviating from the
instructions given in the SPC, may
increase the prevalence of bacteria resistant to ceftiofur. Official,
national and regional antimicrobial
policies should be taken into account when the product is used.
Whenever possible, cephalosporins should only be used based on
susceptibility testing. When
considering the treatment strategy, it is appropriate to consider
improvement of the herd management
practice and use supporting treatment with suitable local products
(e.g. disinfectants).
