Antibiotics or antimicrobial drugs are effective medications for the treatment of bacterial infections in horses.
Common equine infections requiring antibiotics include infected skin wounds and abscesses, pneumonia, infectious diarrhea, cellulitis, peritonitis and more.
Many antibiotics have broad-spectrum action meaning they act against many different bacteria. Others more specifically target certain bacterial strains. Your veterinarian can determine which antibiotic is appropriate for your horse given their medical situation.
These drugs are not without risks, and they can have adverse effects on horse health when given without veterinary oversight.
As a horse owner, it is important to understand how antibiotics work, when they should be used and how to properly administer them to your horse.
This podcast will review antibiotic use in horses, types of equine antibiotics, and how to limit the associated risks for your horse.
