streptococcus
enterococcus
clostridium in companion animals - which diseases and what AB?
Cl. perfringens: enteropatho
Cl. teteni: tetanus
narrow spectrum penicillins: penicillins, peocain and benzathine penicillin
or combination
treat anaerobe bacteria
metronidazole
treatment of staphylococcus
produces b-lactamase
Ø narrow spectrum penicillins
treatment of streptococcus
narrow spectrum penicillin or amoxicillin
treat enterococcus
UTI infections - use amoxicillin.
never use cephalospoins in case it is complicated
Gram negative bacteria ususally infecting comapnion animals
pasteurella bordetella bronchiseptics enterobacteria pseudomonas aeruginosa borrelia spp prevotella, porphyromonas, bactereides mycoplasma chlamydia, rickettsia
pasteruella
- infections
- treatment
respiratory tract infections
cats: dermatitis, pharyngitis, oral cavity infections, abscesses, otitis
amoxicillin and narrow spectrum penicillins
bordetella bronchiseptia
- infection
- treatment
kennel cough
resistant agsint b-lactamase AB, need to use TTC, macrolides, sulphonamides and fluoroquinolones
enterobacter
- infection
- treatment
E.coli - UTI GI infections (dont treat)
amoxicillin + claculanic acid
GI infections in companion animals, treatment
never treat, deadly spreading, can lead to resistance
treat the symptoms instead
only treat with AB in case of severe problems - can cause septicaemia and bacteriemi - give it IV
pseudomonas aeruginosa
- infections
- treatment
otitis externa, supperative otitis externa
hard to treat - cannot use penicillin
borrelia spp
- infection
- treatment
lyme disease
use amoxicillin if it is acute
prevotella, porphyromonas, bacteroides
- infections
- treatment
oral vacity infections
bite wounds
anal sacculitis
amoxicillin+ clavulanic acid
cephalosporin

in life threathening infections
1st generation cephalosporins - what bacteria
gram negative and positive
2nd generation cephalosporins - what bacteria?
gram negative (more effective) and positive

dermatitis
streptomycins
- combinations
- SE
should never be used alone, combine it with narrow spectrum penicillin
SE: nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity, never give to dehydrated animals, young, old
which aminoglycoside is the most toxic?
neomycin - only use topically
polymyxine B - use
good against gram negative - p.aeruginosa
topical ear drops
