Product Info:

Amoxicillin is an improved version of penicillin that is able to last longer, resist stomach acid, and kill both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It is often used to prevent and treat infections found in cuts and wounds, the mouth, the upper respiratory system, and the bladder. Amoxicillin also has better absorption than another predecessor, Ampicillin.

For:

Cats and Dogs

Benefits:

  • Broad-spectrum antibiotic that treats a wide array of bacterial infections
  • Also effective against upper respiratory, bladder, and dental infections
  • Treats ear infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections (infected bite wounds)

How it works:

Amoxicillin kills bacteria by preventing them from building a proper cell wall while they grow. It accomplishes this by inhibiting the linking of peptidoglycan chains that are a major component in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria’s cell walls.

Storage:

Do Not Store Dry Powder at Temperatures Above 25°C (77°F).

Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet develops severe or bloody diarrhea. Give all of the amoxicillin that is prescribed for your pet. Symptoms may begin to improve before the infection is completely treated.
Weight range (lbs) Dosage
All weights Give 5-10 mg/lb of pet's body weight every 12-24 hours. Your veterinarian will determine the actual dose based on the type of infection being treated.

Cautions:

For use in dogs and cats only. Not for use in animals which are raised for food production. For veterinary oral suspension.

Side Effects:

Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet experiences severe or bloody diarrhea during treatment. Stop giving amoxicillin and seek emergency veterinary medical care in the event of an allergic reaction (shortness of breath; hives; swelling of the lips, tongue, or face; rash, or fainting), seizures, unusual bleeding, or bruising. Other, less serious side effects such as mild nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or abdominal pain, or yeast or fungal infection may be more likely to occur. Continue to give amoxicillin and notify your veterinarian if these symptoms occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to your pet.
