Pharmacological properties

PBX vet classification code QJ01 – antibacterial veterinary drugs for systemic use. QJ01MA90 – Enrofloxacin.

Enrofloxacin belongs to the group of fluoroquinolones. It is effective against most pathogenic microorganisms: Mycoplasma spp., E. coli, Salmonella spp., Campylobacter spp., Haemophilus spp., Pasteurella spp., Bordetella spp., Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae, Klebsiella spp., Proteus paraemic, Proteus spp. Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus spp., Clostridium perfringens, Actinobacillus spp. and enterococci. Enrofloxacin has antimicrobial activity by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme DNA gyrase, which is an extremely important catalyst for DNA replication in bacterial cells. Inhibition of DNA gyrase activity leads to functional disorders, blocking biosynthesis in the cell and death of the pathogen. Enrofloxacin is characterized by bactericidal activity, especially against microorganisms resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics,

Following parenteral administration, enrofloxacin is rapidly and completely absorbed from the injection site. Enrofloxacin is rapidly distributed to body tissues, and after 1-2 hours its active concentration in tissues and tissue fluids is several times higher than the concentration in serum.

Most enrofloxacin is metabolized in the body by N-dealkylation and conjugation with glucuronic acid.

Enrofloxacin is excreted mainly in the urine as glucuronides and partly in the bile. The half-life is from 2 to 7 hours, depending on the species. The half-life in calves is 1.2 hours in dogs.
