You know that FMD is a viral disease caused by an Aphthovirus, antibiotics do NOT treat the virus itself.
However, antibiotics would be used to control secondary bacterial infections that occur. (e.g., infected lesions, mastitis, sores, foot rot).

Common Antibiotics used for Secondary Infections:

  • Tetracyclines (e.g., Oxytetracycline broad-spectrum)
  • Penicillins (e.g., Amoxicillin for bacterial complications)
  • Sulfonamides & Trimethoprim (Combination drugs)
  • Topical antiseptics (e.g., iodine-based solutions for wound disinfection)
