  • Title: Efficacy of cefadroxil in the treatment of bacterial dermatitis in dogs.
    Author: Angarano DW, MacDonald JM.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1989 Jan 01; 194(1):57-9. PubMed ID: 2914788.
    Abstract:
    Cefadroxil was found to be an effective antibiotic for the treatment of canine bacterial pyoderma. Bacterial pyoderma was diagnosed in 30 dogs, which were treated with cefadroxil administered orally at 22 mg/kg of body weight, q 12 h, for 21 to 30 days. Dogs were reexamined at the conclusion of antibiotic treatment, and 29 were found to have good to excellent response. On the basis of this study, cefadroxil is a good choice in the treatment of canine pyoderma when cephalosporins are necessary. Efficacy, frequency of administration, cost, and veterinary approval are the major advantages.
