For use in lactating dairy cows for (1) the treatment of clinical mastitis caused by Escherichia coli, Streptococcus dysgalactiae and coagulase negative staphylococci and (2) the treatment of diagnosed subclinical mastitis associated with coagulase-negative staphylococci and Streptococcus dysgalactiae. Cows with systemic clinical signs caused by mastitis should receive other appropriate therapy under direction of a licensed veterinarian.

The choice of this product as the most appropriate treatment should be confirmed by clinical experience supported where possible by pathogen culture and drug susceptibility testing.
