Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! You can give the probiotic while you are giving the clindamycin. The dose of clindamycin for dental abscesses is: 5.5-33mg/kg by mouth every 12 hours. He is receiving 25mg/kg, I hope this helps!

No, I would not recommend this. Clindamycin is a prescription medication that should only be given under the direction of a veterinarian who has examined your vet and made a diagnosis. In addition, clindamycin would not be a particularly good choice for the treatment of kennel cough - its spectrum of activity doesn't cover the bacteria that are usually involved in respiratory infections in dogs.

Hello there and thank you for your post! Packy dermatitis is typically associated with malassezia. This is typically a fungal infection for which clindamycin will not treat. Clindamycin is generally great for bone and dental infections. We typically use clindamycin to treat what we call anaerobic infections due to bacteria not fungus. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. I am also available via consultation if needed

This would depend on the type of antibiotic being treated. Do not medicate your pet without the advice of your veterinarian. Inappropriate antibiotic use can lead to resistant bacteria and may complicate any underlying condition.

No. Warts are typically viral in nature. Antibiotics will have no effect on them. Inappropriate antibiotic use may lead to resistant bacteria and delayed diagnoses. It is best to discuss any medication with your veterinarian prior to giving it to your pet.
