Introduction
• Antimicrobials may not act in the same way in all species of animal
• Antimicrobials- the remedy for many infectious agents- can cause serious damage at times
• Choice of antibiotic is critical• Dogs and Cats- companion animals- can over
react to certain antimicrobials.

SulphonamidesCrystalluria – Sulphathiazole • Sulpha metabolized by acetylation mainly
• Acetylation reduce solubility
• Leads to Crystalluria
• More common in dehydrated animals, acidic urine (carnivores)
• Dogs- lack acetylation mechanism so problem is less.
• Counter act: urinary alkalizers, enough intake of water
Triple sulpha powder ( Sulphapyridine, sulphamerazine, sulphadiazine)- more solube

Hypersensitivity• Sulphadiazine- produce reversible
immune mediated sterile polyarthritis – Doberman
• Can occur 8-20 days after start of treatment
• Backs to normal within 5 days after halt of therapy

Sulfasalazine- for chronic colitis treatment
Colon
Hydrolyzed by bacteria
Sufapridine (Antibiotic) + 5 amino Slicylic acid (anti inflammatory)
Dose – 25 mg/ kg/day

Keratoconjunctivitis sicca – Dogs more prone
• Sulphasalazine, sulphadiazine and sulphamethoxazole
• Nitrogen containing pyridine ring acts on lachrymal acinar cells – cause dryness
• Lacrimation may not return to normal after discontinuation

Hemorrhagic syndrome
• Sulfaquinoxaline – as anti malarial• Vitamin K antagonist - similar to that
of coumarin anticoagulants• Rapid hypoprothrombinemia occur in
dogs • Hypoprothrombinemia can occur
within 24 hours of treatment

Cephalosporin• Cats – superinfection or anaemia• Ceftiofur in dogs - Anemia and
thrombocytopenia• Vomiting, Diarrhoea• Cephaloridine – most nephrotoxic Is a Zwitter ion
Enters proximal tubules
Affects S2 segment- renal failure

AminoglycosidesNephrotoxicity• Aminoglycosides are +ve charged
• Attracted to –ve charge of lipid layer of kindney
• Transported by pinocytosis, related to phosphotidyl inositol ( high in renal and cochlear)
• Acidic pH increase interaction and divalent cations reduce it.
• Reduced prostaglandin synthesis – low glomerular filtrate
• Initial stage- reversible; prolonged usage- irrversible

inner ear- elimination slow• Streptomycin> GentamicinStreptomycin> Gentamicin –
Vestibulotoxic• Neomycin>Kanamycin>amikacinNeomycin>Kanamycin>amikacin –

Neuromuscular blockade• Interfere with Ach release from motor ending• Not commonly seen in therapeutic dosage• When administered with general anaesthesia
and neuromuscular blocking agents.Neomycin, Streptomycin>kana>amika>gentaNeomycin, Streptomycin>kana>amika>genta• Tobramycin least
Thought on aminoglycosideThought on aminoglycosideAminoglcosides- reserved for G(-)ve infections,
used only when benefit overpowers adverse effects

TetracyclineGI upset• Anorexia, abdominal pain, diarrhoea,
nausea and vomiting (Doxycycline)• Super infection with fungi and bacteria• Cardiovascular dysfunction-
Tetracycline chelates calcium. Rapid infusion in i/v causes hypotension and collapse.
• Cats- Fever• Discoloration of teeth

Chloramphenicol
• Cats- dose-related blood dyscrasias• If treatment is nearly 14 days• Longer elimination half-life in the cat• Hypersensitivity reaction in dogs and
cats –Aplastic anemiaReversible bone marrow depression• Kittens – deficient microsomal
enzymes- inadequate drug metabolism- lead to bone marrow suppression.
• Avoided to nursing bitches, queens.

Amphotericin –nephrotoxic• Causes renal vasoconstriction, binds to
membrane cholesterol in renal tubules• Cats more sensitiveGriseofulvin:• Hepatotoxic, CNS disturbances,
hemolytic alterations• Kittens commonly affected- inadequate
glucuronyl conjugation
Cats- terato and carcinogenic in high doseCats- terato and carcinogenic in high dose

Safer antibiotics
Kidney disorder- Penicillin, tetracycline, cephalosporin
• Reduce the dose of drug and increase frequency
Hepatic damage- Amox, Ampicillin• Cephalosporin- next choice• Metronidazole- can be given at lower dose
Neonates- beta lacatm safe
![Page 26: Antibiotics containdicated in dogs & cats](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062312/556daad1d8b42a875d8b4ce7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Pregnancy safe
• Drugs safe in pregnancy- betalactam antibiotics (penicillin G, ampicillin, amoxicillin, amoxicillinclavulanic, carbenicillin, ticarcillin, and cephalosporins)- I choice
• Macrolides, and lincosamides (clindamycin, erythromycin, and lincomycin) – used in allergic patient
Fluroquinalone- not in the line of Fluroquinalone- not in the line of treatment of pregnant animalstreatment of pregnant animals.

Conclusion
• Every antibiotic has their own benefits and problems
• Selection of antibiotic according to the state of disease, species, status of the animal
• Beta lactams are safer compared to all other antibiotics in most of the situations
