Cows with systemic clinical signs caused by mastitis should receive other appropriate therapy under the direction of a licensed veterinarian.

WARNINGS
Penicillins and cephalosporins can cause allergic reactions in sensitized individuals. Topical exposures to such antimicrobials, including ceftiofur, may elicit mild to severe allergic reactions in some individuals. Repeated or prolonged exposure may lead to sensitization. Avoid direct contact of the product with the skin, eyes, mouth and clothing. Sensitization of the skin may be avoided by wearing protective gloves.
Persons with a known hypersensitivity to penicillin or cephalosporins should avoid exposure to this product.
PRECAUTION:
Following intramammary infusion with antibiotics in lactating cows, milk obtained during treatment and during the milk discard period should be properly discarded and not fed to calves.
