excede antibiotic HOW IT WORKS
excede antibiotic treats lower respiratory tract infections in horses caused by susceptible strains of S. equi subspecies zooepidemicus (S. zooepidemicus). EXCEDE is the first and only antibiotic that is FDA-approved for horses that offers a full 10-day course of therapy in just two treatments.
By providing 10 days of therapy in just two treatments, veterinarians can help optimize compliance and convenience by having to administer fewer doses.
- Fewer administrations mean less potential for missed doses.
- Comparative treatments require 10 once-or twice-daily doses. Maintaining multiple treatments at consistent intervals can cause added stress for the horse as well as for those administering the medication.
- For a full course of therapy, horses must receive the full dose (divided into two separate injections) at regular intervals as prescribed by a veterinarian.

Federal law prohibits extra-label use of this drug in cattle for disease prevention purposes; at unapproved doses, frequencies, durations, or routes of administration; and in unapproved major food producing species/production classes.
DESCRIPTION EXCEDE Sterile Suspension is a ready-to-use formulation that contains the crystalline free acid of ceftiofur, which is a broad spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic active against Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria including ß-lactamase-producing strains. Like other cephalosporins, ceftiofur is bactericidal, in vitro, resulting from inhibition of cell wall synthesis. Each mL of this ready-to-use sterile suspension contains ceftiofur crystalline free acid equivalent to 200 mg ceftiofur, in a caprylic/capric triglyceride and cottonseed oil based suspension. Figure
