Always consult your veterinarian before administering Amoxil or any medication to your dog. They will determine the correct dosage based on your dog’s weight and health condition.
Amoxil, while generally safe, can cause side effects. These are usually mild and temporary, but you should monitor your dog closely. Common side effects include vomiting and diarrhea. Less frequently, dogs may experience loss of appetite or skin reactions like itching.
Serious side effects are rare but possible. These include seizures, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), and blood disorders. Contact your vet immediately if you notice any of these.
Before starting Amoxil treatment, inform your veterinarian about any other medications your dog is taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. Some medications can interact negatively with Amoxil.
Amoxil is not suitable for all dogs. Your vet will assess your dog’s health to ensure it’s a safe and appropriate choice. Dogs with known allergies to penicillin should avoid Amoxil.
