The article presents the results of bacteriological and molecular genetic (PCR) diagnostics of swine streptococcosis complicated by pasteurellosis (P. multocida) and mycoplasmosis (M. hyorhinis). Immunomodulator tamox, antibacterial preparations duphamox, melovem, containing amoxicillin, and melovem were used to reduce the symptoms of lameness and the degree of inflammation. Pregnant sows and weaned piglets without signs of disease were given specific prophylaxis using a streptococcosis vaccine (ImportierterspezifischerImpfstoff). The health improvement measures allowed the livestock to be sanitized from bacterial infections, including streptococcosis and pasteurellosis, but this did not affect the infection of piglets with mycoplasmas.
