Content : Increasing rates of antimicrobial resistances represent a threat to human and animal health worldwide. In order to preserve the efficacy and availability of antimicrobial drugs for bovine patients, the principles of prudent use of antimicrobials must be strictly implemented. The lecture will review indications for antimicrobial drugs during and after surgical procedures in cattle as well as strategies to minimize their use, e.g. through optimal antisepsis and surgical technique. Considerations for the choice of adequate antimicrobial drugs according to prudent use principles will be discussed for the most common surgical procedures in cattle.
