Ceftonit is an antibacterial veterinary drug of the cephalosporin group. Its active ingredient is ceftiofur hydrochloride, the third generation cephalosporin antibiotic, which is very effective against a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria including β-lactamase producing strains and some anaerobic bacteria: Escherichia coli, Pasteurella (Mannheimia) haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus somnus, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Haemophilus parasuis, Salmonella cholerasuis, Streptococcus Suis, Streptococcus zooepidemicus, Streptococcus equi, Pasteurella spp, Staphilococcus spp., Actynomyces pyogenes, Salmonells typhimurium, Streptococcus agalactiae, S. dysgalactiae, S. bovis, Klebsiela, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Bacillus spp., Proteus spp., Fusobacterium necrophorum и Porphiromonas assacharolytica (Bacteroides melaninogenicus).
After injection, ceftiofur is quickly metabolised into desfuroylceftiofur, which has a biological activity against microorganisms.
