Ceftiofur is an antibiotic of the cephalosporin type (third generation), licensed for use in veterinary medicine. It was first described in 1987.

J. Vet. Res. |volume=48 |issue=7 |pages=1050–3 |year=1987 |pmid=3631686 |doi=] It is marketed by pharmaceutical company Pfizer as Excede.

It is resistant to the antibiotic resistance enzyme beta-lactamase, and has activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. "E. coli" strains resistant to ceftiofur have been reported. [cite journal |author=Donaldson SC, Straley BA, Hegde NV, Sawant AA, DebRoy C, Jayarao BM |title=Molecular epidemiology of ceftiofur-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from dairy calves |journal=Appl. Environ. Microbiol. |volume=72 |issue=6 |pages=3940–8 |year=2006 |pmid=16751500 |doi=10.1128/AEM.02770-05]
