s i t i t s a m i l o c . E t u o e Strik ! t o h s e l g in a sin E.coli mastitis accounts for 19% of all mastitis cases in the UK1. When E.coli strikes it is usually sudden and sometimes fatal. If you want a fast-acting E.coli mastitis treatment then you need an antibiotic with a quick bactericidal effect that kills E.coli fast. This also helps: body temperature, general condition and appetite start to return to normal within hours.2 Fluids and an anti-inflammatory will also greatly assist with a fast recovery.

Equally important, is reducing the risk of antibiotic resistance developing on your farm. Single injection short-acting antibiotics (SISAAB) help you reach peak concentrations fast but also quickly leave the system reducing the chance of resistance development. This also enables shorter milk withhold periods*. Contact your vet to discuss the short-acting single injection antibiotic (SISAAB) treatment that strikes E.coli mastitis hard and fast, getting her back to milking faster.3
