| Summary: | Although bacteria are normal inhabitants of the canine skin, they play an
essential role in the pathogenesis of canine pyoderma. As this skin disease
is commonly presented in the small animal practice, the use of antibiotics
in its treatment is on high level, al- though it is often misused.
Consequently, excessive and irrational use of antimicrobials leads to the
growth of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and resistant bacterial strains.
Therefore, it is necessary to follow the right therapy guidelines to provide
appropriate treatment management which is crucial in any policy for
prudent and rational antimicrobial use (AMU). Hence, this review aimed to
summarize established evidence-based antimicrobial guidelines in treating
pyoderma in order to help veterinarians in the fight against development of
AMR and its further growth, as one of the highest threats to the public
health and topics of the global concern. |
