Cefalonium is a cephalosporin antibiotic.1 It is active against pooled isolates of S. aureus from the milk of lactating dairy cows with subclinical mastitis (MIC90 = 2 µg/ml). Formulations containing cefalonium have previously been used in dry cow therapy in the treatment and prevention of mastitis.
