Precautions The effects of ceftiofur on the reproductive performance, pregnancy, and lactation of cattle, swine, sheep, and goats have not been determined. Cattle Following subcutaneous administration of ceftiofur sodium in the neck of cattle, small areas of discoloration at the site may persist beyond five days, potentially resulting in trim loss of edible tissues at slaughter. As with any parenteral injection, localized post-injection bacterial infections may result in abscess formation. Attention to hygienic procedures can minimize their occurrence.

If acute diarrhea is observed, discontinue use of this antimicrobial and initiate appropriate therapy. Dogs The safety of ceftiofur has not been determined for dogs intended for breeding, or pregnant dogs. - DIRECTIONS:Cattle Administer to cattle by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection at the dosage of 0.5 to 1.0 mg ceftiofur per pound (1.1 to 2.2 mg/kg) of body weight (1-2 mL reconstituted sterile solution per 100 lbs body weight).
