Amoxycillin for veterinary use usually comes as a powder, which reconstitutes to 50mg of amoxycillin per 1ml of medicine. Standard veterinary dose for any cat seems to be 1ml (50mg) per dose, two doses a day.
However, no medicine should ever be administered to a cat without veterinary advice. There are many medicines which are harmful or fatal to cats, which are largely harmless to people; something added to human-grade amoxycillin which is harmless to us, may be a problem for cats because of their differing metabolism.
Just as in a human, all antibiotics should be used under the direction of a vet. Antibiotic dosages vary by weight.
5-10mg per lb of cats weight
5mg per pound every 8 hours.
1.0 ml
It is 500 mg amoxicillin.
Give your cat 5 - 10 mg/lb once daily for 5 - 7 days then continue for 48 hrs after symptoms have subsided.
No
500mg for 5-7 days.
Any pharmacist behind the counter in any large chain pharmacy would be happy to discuss that question with you.
Depending on the type of infection dose of Amoxicillin is 250, 375 or 500 mg three times/day for most of the infections for this teenager. Amoxicillin has wide margin of safety.
I think so but I know there's 875 mg amoxicillin pills.
500 mg three times a day
It is amoxicillin, which is an antibiotic to treat infections. You will have to ask your doctor what type of infection he or she is treating because it can be many sorts.
No, it is a different medication. It is Augmentin (or Clavulin) which contains amoxicillin AND clavulanic acid that reduce penicillin resistance. In a 500-125 caplet, you get 500mg of amoxicillin and 125mg of clavulanic acid.
You have Penicillin V tablet 125 and 250 mg and Amoxicillin tablet 125/250/500 mg under various brand names in the market. Like Kaypen and Mox respectively in India, for example.
Amoxicillin falls into the group of Penicillin type antibiotics and can be used for most of the same things. 500 mg is a common dosage for horses but it would be best to contact an equine vet and ask for specifics as it would be impossible to cover all the variables here. That being said however, seeing as 500 mg is a common dosage typically given every 8 hours, there shouldn't be too much harm in giving a horse of that weight Amoxicillin, provided it is to be used as an antibiotic, remember if the horse is displaying flu like symptoms, those are caused by a virus and an antibiotic will have absolutely no effect on them.
