Infusion of antibiotics at the start of the drying off period has the following advantages: (1) it is active against existing infections; (2) it is prophylactic against new infections, during the time when cattle are likely to become infected [1]; (3) the antibiotic remains in the udder for a sufficiently long period to accomplish the intended objective and is not diluted with milk, as is the case in lactation therapy; (4) the danger of drug residues in the milk is reduced. Antibiotic control is to be considered an adjunct to good herd hygiene management and milking management. Detailed field studies in England and the United States have demonstrated that a program consisting of treatment, at the time of drying off, with a highly effective antibiotic preparation in a slow-release base, and routine dipping of teats after each milking with an effective disinfectant, markedly reduces the incidence of all udder infections at calving [2,3,4]. It has recently been recommended that a disinfectant teat dip be used on unmilked cows, or at least be used for 10 days before parturition [5], to reduce the bacterial challenge to the depleted levels of antibiotic in the teat as freshening is approached [6]. When the herd infection level has been reduced, or when herds are not heavily infected initially, it may be desirable to be selective in treating dry quarters [7]. ACCIÓN: La infusión de antibióticos al comienzo del período de secado tiene las siguientes ventajas: (1) es activa contra las infecciones existentes; (2) es profiláctica contra las nuevas infecciones durante el período en el que el ganado es propenso a contraer infecciones [1]; (3) el antibiótico permanence en la ubre por un período lo suficientemente largo como para lograr el objetivo y no se diluye con la leche, como pasa con la terapia en período de lactancia; (4) se reduce el peligro de que queden residuos del medicamento en la leche. El control con antibióticos debe considerarse un auxiliar de la buena gestión de higiene del Ganado y la gestión del ordeñe. Estudios de campo detallados realizados en Inglaterra y Estados Unidos han demostrado que un programa constituido por un tratamiento al momento del secado, con una preparación de antibióticos de liberación lenta altamente efectiva, y el sellado frecuente de los pezones con un desinfectante eficaz después de cada ordeñe, reducen considerablemente la incidencia de todas las infecciones de ubre en la parición [2, 3, 4]. Recientemente, se ha recomendado usar un sellador desinfectante de pezones en vacas no ordeñadas, o al menos usarlo 10 días antes del parto [5] para reducir el riesgo bacteriano a los niveles más bajos de antibiótico en el pezón cuando se acerca el período de producción de leche [6]. Cuando se haya reducido el nivel de infección del ganado, o en caso de que el ganado no esté muy infectado, es conveniente ser selectivo en el tratamiento de cuartos secos [7].
