  • Title: Antimicrobial therapy for gastrointestinal diseases.
    Author: Papich MG.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Equine Pract; 2003 Dec; 19(3):645-63, vi. PubMed ID: 14740761.
    Abstract:
    Antibiotics will always be needed in horses for many types of infections, but the adverse consequences also must be considered. For the conditions described in this article, there is justification for antibiotic therapy. The intestinal problems that antibiotics can induce are among the risks from their administration to horses. Disruption of the endogenous bacterial population, colitis, and diarrhea are the most common complications from antibiotic therapy.
