Prevention and Control
In CM mastitis, therapeutic measures are usually not
undertaken before the sow shows signs of dysgalactia.
Thus, treatment may at best shorten the period of
underfeeding of the piglets. Antimicrobial therapy is
complicated by the heterogeneous pattern of antimicrobial
susceptibility of individual isolates not only
within a herd but also within a sow. Therefore; sensitivity
testing is of little value in individual cases.
