see your vet. augmentin may work, amox is unlikely to, but usually ear drops with antibiotic/antifungal/steroid are what I've seen used.
Yes you can. Just make sure that the human strength is the same as what the vet has prescribed. It has the exact same thing in it as the dog version. I have double checked this with my vet and my doctor.
Clavamox, an antibiotic for dogs, contains amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. In human medicine, the equivalent would be Augmentin, which also contains amoxicillin and clavulanic acid and is prescribed for similar bacterial infections. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment in humans.
Any medication given to your pet should be prescribed or recommended by a qualified veterinarian, rather than an online question board.
my dog is seven years old she had a cold can i give her 250 milligram of amoxicillin antibiotics and how often.
I'd check with your vet first, aspirin can upset the stomach, not all antbiotics will agree with pets, if your vet gave you the amoxicillin did they mention to give aspirin also? Aspirin not recommended by your vet can be fatal to your dog. Never ever give aspirin made for human consumption to your dogs.
Yes They can.
The doseage of amoxicillin depends upon the formulation, the route of administration, the infection being treated and the dog's overall health status. You would need to ask your veterinarian this question, particularly since in the United States at least amoxicillin is a prescription-only drug that you can't give to your dog without a veterinary prescription.
I need help. I have an 80lb dog and I need to buy amoxicillin what will be the doseage should i get him?
Depends on the dog's size and weight and what's the matter with the dog. One dose amount does not fit all. Even though amoxicillin is pretty broad based, it may not be the correct drug. If it isn't, you can make the problem worse by administering it and making the bacterial infection more antibiotic resistant. Before giving any Rx, consult your Vet.
You should give the dog whatever the vet perscribes you when you take it there to get its ears checked.
No, for several reasons. First, amoxicillin does not treat all types of infections, so it may not work at all. Second, amoxicillin (like all medications) does have side effects, including the potential for an allergic reaction; giving it to your dog without considering these side effects could make the situation worse, or even life-threatening. Third, the dose of amoxicillin is different for dogs than for humans. Fourth, giving human amoxicillin to your dog without a veterinary prescription is illegal, as it is considered drug diversion. Your best option is to monitor the infection - if it is annoying your dog but otherwise not causing problems (still eating, drinking, playing) you can probably wait a day or two to get him into the vet. If you need emergency treatment, call your veterinarian and get the emergency clinic information from them - there should be a local clinic that can provide treatment 24/7 for your dog, although it will probably cost more.
If it's made for humans, no.
