Anti-bacterials Pigs Cobactan 2.5 % is a ready-to-use suspension for injection containing cefquinome, a 4th generation cephalosporin. The shape of the cefquinome molecule facilitates a fast distribution in the treated animals and ensures a quick passage of bacterial cell walls, resulting in a rapid bactericidal effect following injection. Cefquinome has a broad-spectrum of activity, including Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, such as Actinobacillus spp., Haemophilus spp., Pasteurella spp., E. coli, Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Salmonella spp., Clostridium spp., Corynebacterium and Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.
