Best Answer

Unless told to do so by a veterinarian, it is never a good idea to give a dog medicine that was intended for humans as it tends to affect their system differently. So to more directly answer your question, you need to talk to your vet and see what he or she recommends or prescribes for the dog.

The use of Antibiotics should be restricted to conditions which are likely to respond to such therapy since many antibiotics can result in major side effects including death for the pet. When prescribed by a vet they are low dose and disease specific. Using human "leftover" antibiotics is very dangerous. See below for a website that can help explain.
