Therapeutically classification: Antibiotic
Composition: Each 10 g syringe contains:
Cloxacillin (benzathine) | 500 | mg |
Oily base q. s. | 10 | g |
Target species: Dry cows
Indications:
Cloxatin ® used for treatment and control of mastitis in dairy cows during dry period due to Streptococcus agalactiae and Staphylococcus aureus including penicillin-resistant strains.
Mechanism of action:
Cloxacillin benzathine has bactericidal activity against gram-positive bacteria. It is semisynthetic and in the same class as penicillin. Cloxacillin is used against staphylococci that produce beta-lactamase due to its large R chain which does not allow the beta-lactamase to bind. Cloxacillin has less antibacterial activity than benzylpenicillin.
