How to give amoxicillin to a puppy who keeps spitting it out?

Unless the amoxicillin was prescribed by your veterinarian, you should stop giving it, as it does not work against viruses. If one puppy has roundworms, then all puppies will have roundworms and should be treated with a puppy wormer available from your vet or a petshop. Any wormer which is specified as a puppy wormer should be effective. Puppy wormers are either in tablet or paste form and are given by mouth.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Archie. I do recommend that he sees a veterinarian right away. I would take the prescription bottle with you to show the veterinarian. Vomiting may be induced depending on how many tablets he may have consumed and based on his current weight. I hope this information helps!

If Bella just started vomiting since starting the Amoxicillin, I would stop giving her the medication and schedule a recheck with your vet. She likely is just sensitive to this medication and will do fine on another one. Try offering her something easily digestible to eat like plain boiled chicken and rice. This may help settle her stomach until you can get to the vet. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.

There is a chance that this is related to the medication and so should stop within about 12 hours of stopping the medication. If your puppy is still vomiting after that then I would recommend taking her in to be examined and given medication to stop the vomiting. I would also recommend withholding food from her for about 12-24 hours and see if that helps the vomiting stop. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Hello. Amoxicillin is a very safe medication with a large range of appropriate doses. I would not worry at all about this one time overdose. Just continue with the 1.5 ml at the next scheduled time. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Oh no, that was naughty of Baxter! He took about five times the recommended dose of ampicillin. This will likely cause a reaction in the form of vomiting, drooling, and diarrhea, but more serious effects such as tremors or seizures. If you see tremors or seizures, Baxter will have to see a vet immediately. Should you see vomiting and diarrhea, withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed him a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet.

Please, here in this forum don’t threaten shooting your dog if we don’t help you. It’s inappropriate. The dose for Amoxicillin is 10-25mg/kg, two to three times per day. You are better off giving him 1,000 mg three times a day if the infection is a bad as you described.
