what antibiotic can treat mastitis
Intramammary antibiotic tubes are the most common treatment for mild and moderate cases of mastitis and are usually given without knowing the type of bacteria that is causing the infection (Hoe and Ruegg, 2006; Oliviera and Ruegg, 2014).
Treatment for mastitis usually includes: 1  Oral antibiotics to destroy the bacteria causing the infection. 2  Regularly emptying the breast well by breastfeeding or pumping breast milk.
