5.1 |
Pharmacodynamic properties |
|
|
|
Chlorhexidine is recognised as a broad spectrum biocide active against common mastitis causing bacteria. The mode of action involves rapid attraction to the bacterial cell wall and absorption to phosphate compounds on the bacterial surface |
|
|
5.2 |
Pharmacokinetic properties |
|
|
|
Because of its cationic nature, chlorhexidine bonds strongly to skin and mucosa. It is therefore poorly absorbed after oral or topical application. Chlorhexidine is of low toxicity. Residues in milk from use as a teat dip or spray have been demonstrated to be low |
