In dogs, this product treats urinary tract infections caused by Proteus mirabilis or Escherichia coli. Administer subcutaneously at a dosage rate of 1 mg of Ceftiofur for every pound of body weight (or 0.1 mL of reconstituted solution for every 5 pounds of body weight).

Drug elimination has been found through pharmacokinetic data to be more rapid when administered to a lactating doe. Therefore, when treating a lactating doe, a high dose is indicated. In sheep, this product treats sheep pneumonia (sheep respiratory disease) caused by Pasteurella multocida or Mannheimia haemolytica. Administer intramuscularly at a dosage rate of 0.5 mg to 1 mg for every pound of body weight (1 mL to 2 mL of reconstituted solution for every 100 pounds of body weight).
