Can you give your dog mortrin?

No No. Never give a dog human medications. If your dog needs a pain reliever, then take your dog in to see a Veterinarian to see why. Only regular coated or buffered aspirin is safe for a dog and then you need to know the correct dosage for its weight. Take your dog into a Veterinarian.

What human antibiotics are safe for dogs?

Amoxicillin is commonly prescribed for dogs, but usually in liquid form. It would be a good idea to check with your vet. You don't want to endanger your pet just to save money, and there are other issues involved with infections besides knowing which antibiotics are not harmful. Different infections require different drugs, and different doses. Be careful.

Is it safe to give 14 pound dog levaquin?

No, unless your veterinarian has prescribed the medication for your dog. Dogs are not small humans and they can react very differently to medications than humans. If you think your dog needs Levaquin, you should take him/her to your veterinarian for an examination. Incidentally, there are less expensive generic antibiotics that may be more effective if your dog needs antibiotic therapy, and your veterinarian can write you a prescription to an outside pharmacy for this. I know of several veterinarians that routinely write prescriptions for clients to fill at human pharmacies because the antibiotics and some of the maintenance medications are available for $4 a month or free that way.

Can humans take dog's antibiotics?

Anybody that says that human antibiotics will poison a dog, is an uneducated bonehead. Sorry, but it irritates me when someone will state opinion as fact. The fact is that antibiotics are antibiotics. Anti means against, biotic means living organisms, so what they do is kill microorganisms, it doesn't matter where they are living, human, dog, cat, etc. The difference for pets is dosage according to weight. Same as dosing for children. Just like with humans, dogs can have antibiotic allergies as well. Mild overdosing would not cause any serious harm, severe overdosing can cause kidney problems.
