Hello, Can you please tell us if the antibiotic "Veraflox" is toxic to a cat with mild kidney disiase? Our 16 year old cat "Tigger" was on it for 5 weeks for e coli. The e coli was cured. A week later she had some diarrhea and received it again f
It isn't toxic per se, but it should be used with caution in pets with kidney disease. Kidney disease is an insidious condition because a pet can show no clinical signs until one day they are suddenly "sick". This is because most pets can be asymptomatic until they lose about 75% of kidney function. Once diagnosed, we are already "behind the 8 ball" in treatment. It is likely a combination of all her conditions contributed to her downward spiral, especially at 16 years old. I am sorry for the loss of Tigger. May she rest in peace.

Veterinary medicines aren't available in my country, so vets prescribe human meds to pets. My cat (who has been coughing - dry cough, 2 to 3 times a day, 10 to 15 seconds at a time) has been prescribed Velosef Syrup. My question is: does it make a di
Thank you for using Boop by Petco! I'm sorry that Jolly is not feeling well. There is no difference in the active ingredient, an antibiotic, between Velosef syrup vs capsules/tablets. Slight differences in the way the compound is dissolved may be present, but the activity is the same. Most veterinarians prescribe medications based on the animal's weight, so the total dose (total milligrams) needs to be the same no matter the form of the medication. I recommend asking your vet what the total amount of medication is per dose, and ensuring that the same amount is present in either the capsules, tablets, or syrup. I'm happy to answer any other questions you may have!

My cat was sneezing and coughing. Took her to a vet and they gave her Convenia. After three days her nose started bleeding and her sneezing got worse. Took her to another vet and they gave her clavamox or something like that with prednisone. She did
Clavamox and Convenia are not suitable antibiotics for this type of infection, azithromyacin is a very good option and should solve the problem, if it doesn't i would recommend asking your vet to try Doxycycline or Veraflox next.

In your experience is clindamycin oral or clindamycin injections SQ more effective against URI in cats? Specifically kittens. My 4 week foster is on .02 clin SQ BID and though I've seen some improvement she is still pretty sick after day 7. I'm wonde
This is not the antibiotic of choice for URI in cats, the most suitable antibiotics for this condition at this are are Zhitromax and Veraflox. doxycycline should never be given to a kitten this young and clavamox is usually much less effective for URI in cats.

my cat has a upper respiratory infection. He was given a anti biodic shot but continues to sneeze is there a pill I can give him over a period of time to clear up the infection
Usually the antibiotic injection doesn't work very well for these type of upper respiratory infection, i would recommend asking your vet to switch to an oral suspension such as Veraflox or Zhitromax which are much more effective against this condition.
