Equitrim Equine Oral Paste
Uses
For the oral treatment of a wide range of equine bacterial infections.
Equitrim is a broad spectrum antibacterial, active against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. Together the active ingredients produce a double blockade of folinic acid synthesis in bacteria resulting in a level of activity much greater than that obtained from either drug alone.
In vitro Equitrim is effective against Escherichia coli, Corynebacterium equi, Staphylococcus spp., and Streptococcus spp. When susceptible organisms are present Equitrim Equine Paste may be effective in treating the following conditions:
Respiratory tract infections including pneumonia, pleurisy and strangles.
Alimentary tract infections including diarrhoea.
Wounds, septicaemia and general infections.
