Are doxycycline tablets with probiotics used for pet tick disease?
Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Yes, doxycycline is used to treat tick borne diseases. It seems as though the doxycycline is coated in a probiotic. I can't say I've seen this form in the US but it should be fine. Have a good day!

Is 500mg Doxycycline 3x daily too high for my dog with lupus?
Hello. I wonder if perhaps the labels were mixed up. Normally, Doxycycline would be prescribed at 5-10 mg/kg ( 136-272 mg ) every 12 - 24 hours & the niacinamide 500 mg every 8 hours. Now if your vet actually sent home tetracycline, then the dose would be 500 mg every 8 hours. But if the Doxycycline was substituted for the Tetracycline, then the total dose should be less. I would definitely double check this with your veterinarian as soon as possible. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Can Petco help me find accurate medication dosages for my dog?
Unfortunately, we are not permitted to give out drug dosages without a veterinarian - client - pet relationship. If you are seeking this information, I would obtain it through a veterinarian in person or through a veterinary formulary such as Plumb's or Merck. Hope this makes sense.

Can I crush or dissolve my pet's Cerenia and Doxycycline pills?
Hello. Both the Cerenia & Doxycycline can be crushed & mixed with just about any food or liquid you like. The Doxycycline will be very bitter tasting if just mixed with water, so you might try hiding it in any type of food except dairy. Avoid any milk or cheese with this antibiotic. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
