About Metricef
Bacterial infections of the skin, ears, gut, urinary tract or chest can make a animal feel unwell, and they need the right antibiotic to clear.
Metricef is an intramammary syringe from MSD Animal Health that contains cephapirin. Cephapirin is a cephalosporin antibiotic.
Vets commonly use it for uterine infections (endometritis) in cows. Your vet will confirm it suits your animal and set the dose and how long to give it.
