Hi Donna,
Here is a post from Jaini that I found in the archives regarding Excede. Post #174118 All should be aware of the potential of cephalosporins, in particular ceftiofur (Excenel, Naxcel, Excede) to cause laminitis. These drugs are commonly used, and labeled for use in horses - but caution, big-time, should be exercised in their use. In fact, don't use them in horses at all.

What antibiotic do we use with Cushing horses? [And, I guess IR, too, although mine isn't there yet.] Thanks. Chanda MT 9/04 |

Hi
I treated a horse with EXCEDE horse got a shot once a week for 4 weeks,caused extreme sore neck,made the horse very needle shy 2 shots into treatment. I did not own the horse,that was treated but seeing the reaction on this horse,i did shots for i WOULDN"T give EXCEDE,to any horse. Just my opinion for what its worth. >>>>Prior to official diagnosis my mare had SMZs and a shot of Excede with no ill effects.>>> Corrine & Jasper MN 4/2014 |

....."What antibiotic do we use with Cushing horses? [And, I guess IR, too, although mine isn't there yet.]".....
So the first question is, what are you treating?It all depends on what you are treating. Certain classes of antibiotics only work for certain things. Kerry in NY Sept 2014 |

Kerry, I did not post the below message....I think they wanted a general answer. But to clarify my issue, his tail bone has an infected sore (blood and pus) from the biting flys....sweet itch, chronic. |

Hi,
What antibiotic is safe to treat a PPID/IR horse with a sinus infection? She has a discharge from her right nostil, no fever, lungs OK, and she's eating well - and she's a picky eater. Years ago she was briefly on metronidazole but colicked badly so that's out. Three months ago she had a broken tooth removed from her right upper arcade, not sure if that's the cause of this problem or not. Is uniprim OK? Thanks!
