[Spiramycin and the antibacterial therapy of mastitis].
The Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) for 18 strains of staphylococci isolated from the national randomized mastitis surveys were determined. The antibiotics used were penicillin-G, cloxacillin and spiramycin. On the basis of these findings in addition to literature data concerning clinical efficacy trials it is concluded, that spiramycin is indicated for the treatment of persistent chronic udder infections caused by peniciline-G resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus.
