That is the generic form of Clavamox. You can buy it as long as it matches the prescription from your veterinarian. You may need your vet to write a prescription for generic Clavamox. Contact the pharmacy beforehand to confirm they will fill it generically.

I personally would use clavamox long term if it’s effective. Yes, there are less side effects. Then you can keep the clindamycin to use at some point in the future, if needed. Clavamox now comes in flavored chewable pills which seem to be very palatable. Thanks for using Boop by Petco to help you care for Callie.

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! 300mg clavamox twice daily is an appropriate dose for a 37 lb dog as his 250mg metronidazole twice daily. Together these antibiotics work well for both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. I hope this helps and I wish Hazel a speedy recovery!

Clavamox is good for 10 days in the refrigerator. I would recommend having Bella rechecked by your veterinarian before restarting the Clavamox. While a decrease in appetite might be a side effect I would not expect coughing and wheezing - this could have been from the endotracheal tube used during anesthesia or could be a sign of respiratory or cardiac disease. Your veterinarian may want to assess Bella's lymph nodes again before restarting the antibiotic, or may recommend a different antibiotic instead.

Hello and thank you for reaching out to Boop by Petco. Love Saki’s name! You are correct in your calculation, but 250 mg is not too much for Saki. Clavamox is only available in certain tablet sizes, including 125mg and 250mg. We never want to under-dose antibiotics, so we will often round up to the next best tablet size. As long as Saki is taking the antibiotic with food, GI side effects should be minimal. I hope this is helpful!
