Synopsis

Updated and expanded, the third edition of Antimicrobial Veterinary Medicine, by J F Prescott, J D Baggot and R D Walker, includes contributions by some of the foremost experts of the subject. Practitioners and students alike will find this book to be an indispensable basic reference on the pharmacology and clinical applications of virtually all types if antimicrobials used in veterinary medicine.

New to this edition are chapters on aquaculture and on regulation of antibiotic use in animals. In addition, the book extensively re examines the use of feed antibiotics as growth promoters and disease prophylactics in animals and its relationship to the growing crisis of antibiotic resistance.
The well-organised, easy to read, and thorough presentation covers antimicrobial drug use in poultry and livestock, as well as in companion animals ranging from reptiles and birds to dogs and cats. Drug actions and interactions, susceptibility testing, drug bioavailability and disposition, and principles of drug selection and use are also discussed.

A valuable feature of the book is its numerous tables that provide detailed information on dosages, routes of administration and special considerations in the use of antibiotics in animals.
