Ceftiofur is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic with the molecular formula C22H22N6O7S2. It is broadly spectrum, meaning it is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms.
Veterinary Medicine: Ceftiofur is primarily used in veterinary practice for the treatment of bacterial infections in various animal species, such as cattle, swine, horses, and sheep.
Aquaculture: It is also employed in aquaculture to combat bacterial diseases in fish and other aquatic animals, ensuring the health and well-being of the stock.
Companion Animals: Ceftiofur is prescribed for dogs and cats with bacterial infections that require broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy.
Bactericidal Activity: Ceftiofur functions by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell wall components, specifically peptidoglycan, leading to cell lysis and death of the bacteria.
Broad-Spectrum Coverage: Its broad-spectrum activity makes it effective against a diverse range of pathogens, reducing the need for multiple antibiotics and minimizing the risk of antibiotic resistance.
Tissue Penetration: Ceftiofur demonstrates good tissue penetration, allowing it to reach and eliminate bacteria in deep-seated infections, such as those in the lungs, joints, and urinary tract.
