Description

Ceftiofur Sodium is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic specifically formulated for veterinary use. This compound is valued for its broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, offering effective therapeutic solutions in animal health. It is a critical active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for manufacturers developing injectable formulations to treat respiratory, foot rot, and other bacterial infections in livestock, including cattle and swine. Global suppliers and pharmaceutical companies rely on high-purity Ceftiofur Sodium CAS NO 104010-37-9 to ensure the efficacy and safety of their veterinary medicinal products.

Application

• Primary API in the manufacture of veterinary injectable antibiotic formulations.
• Treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) and associated infections in cattle.
• Control and treatment of swine respiratory disease and bacterial enteritis.
• Used in the management of foot rot and acute interdigital necrobacillosis in cattle.
• Key ingredient for compounding pharmacies specializing in veterinary medicine.
• Research and development of new antibacterial treatments in veterinary science.
• Production of medicated premixes for targeted antibacterial therapy (where approved).
