Gastrointestinal Infections due to Enterococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp. and Escherichia coli.

Skin, Soft Tissue and Post-Surgical Infections: Abscesses, pustular dermatitis, cellulitis and infections of the anal gland, due to Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, hemolytic streptococci, Staphylococcus spp. and Pasteurella spp.

Cattle and calves Including Non-Ruminating (Veal Calves)-Respiratory Tract Infections: Bacterial pneumonia (shipping fever, calf pneumonia and bovine pneumonia) caused by Aerobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Pasteurella multocida and E.coli susceptible to ampicillin trihydrate.
