Avatar m tn I have a 7 month old Rat Terrier puppy and he's been sick since I got him. First he was diagnosed with lymes disease and put on antibiotics, he finally got back to his happy playful self after about 3 weeks. About a month after that I noticed he wasn't playing, eating or barking...again. I though for sure it was the lymes acting up and so we put him back on the meds, but then I realized he was still moving ok and wasn't crying whenever I picked him up.
Avatar f tn Yet, the other day when I called and spoke to another vet at the same clinic ( who knows my dog situation very well too) to tell her symptoms my dog is having after doxycycline, she said to come get another antibiotic..... I want to ask for your opinion.... do you think I should stop, not try another anytbiotic because of the symptoms... he can’t hold water... or should I listen to the vet and give him new antibiotic, eventhough he hasn’t eaten the last day or drink much.
Avatar n tn i took my dog to the vet sunday for a rash on his head. he was started on prednisone and amoxicillin. on wednesday, we were all sitting outside and he was running around playing. his head was healing nicely. he ran about 30 feet, turned around and ran back to my son. he stopped and walked a couple of steps to get his ball which was under my son's foot. he turned and stumbled a couple of steps and hit his head on the cement.
Avatar n tn I have a small dog (11lbs) and she was recently at the vet for an injury to her head and other lacerations from another dog. I always worry about over dosing because of her size. She was given 0.30 cc Rimadyl 0.80 cc Buprenex 2.00mg Dexamethasone 1.50cc Amoxicillin. I questioned the vet about this because of the Buprenex with a head injury and more pain meds when she had not even woken up at any time before she passed.
Avatar n tn It sounds like your vet thinks your dog has an infection. Cerenia is for nausea in your dog. Keeping your dog hydrated is your most important task right now. You could try flavorless pedialyte that has electrolytes in it to help with hydration. Leave water bowls around. I've offered water from my hand before and my dog will take it even if not feeling good. How is your dog doing today after you posted this?
Avatar m tn About a month ago I cracked a tooth. A week or so after the crack is swelled up pretty bad. I went to urgent care and the doctor games me 500mg of penicillin 4 times a day. The penicillin knocked out the swelling in a couple days and everything pretty much went back to normal. Last night the area swelled up again and even my law line started swelling. I could feel a large bump in my gum line which I'm guessing was the infection.
Avatar m tn After taking amoxicillin (for dog bite to ear) only took them for 2 days as bad stomach upset and weak feeling/pain in arms & erythromycin about 3 to 4 weeks later for pimples on scalp about 4 to 5 days after the stopping the erythromycin due to bad stomach upset (going to toilet 5 to 6 times a day) my wrists went very red and sore (worse on right hand) dominant hand and also my hands constant flushing/hot/sore (could not even but hands in jean pockets so sore) Was given antihistamine shot
Avatar m tn The dose for amoxicillin is 62.5 mg per cat twice per day. Amoxicillin is a form of penicillin. A 20 pound cat is really equivalent to two average sized cats so I think that you could safely increase the dose to 75mg twice daily. 50mg of penicillin twice daily is under dosing for any cat. Please try and actually weigh him to be sure or his most recent weight since he may have lost weight since the incident. He probably has not defecated as yet since he is not consuming much food.
Avatar m tn hi! she's 3 years old and is a shihtzu/poodle/minpin mix (she looks like a slightly larger and longer yorkie). with regards to their food, i haven't fed my dogs commercial dog food for the past two years and it has improved their health - no more rashes, allergies, and frequent vet visits. Usually it's just steamed meat ( chopped lean pork, chicken (no bones), or liver), squash, and rice. they like to snack on fruits and veggies, usually banana, watermelon, and carrots.
Avatar m tn He should have never been sent home without any......You will need at least enough for a week.......Your dog should be on oral antibiotics for the abcess, also..........
Avatar f tn So I caught a bacteria on my throat last month and was prescribed with Amoxicillin. It got rid of the infection, but then right after my tonsils from inside my throat was swollen and was taking Prednisone. It went away. I felt better and now I have it again. A bacteria on my tonsils and I found out I am getting it from my filthy fan. This time the doctor gave me Clindamycin.
Avatar n tn The whole situation has been suspect to my mind since you posted about the initial surgery. I can think of no reason for a dog to be knocked out to have long nails clipped. It's true that the quick extends in overgrown nails, but the solution is to trim them a little at a time and the quick will recede over time. There was absolutely no reason to knock out your dog and whack away at those nails deep into the quick. As you now know, that's a great invitation to infection.
Avatar f tn After having intercourse with my girlfriend, as always I run water in the condom just to check it, it's been a habit since I started doing it so I just continue to do it now. She's been on birth control for over a year, but we still use a condom as a second method of backup. I've been reading a lot of things but have yet to come to a definitive answer as to why there was a tiny pinhole in the condom after filling with water.
Avatar f tn He told me to wait to take another dose of amoxicillin until the day before the extraction. My jaw is currently hurting right below the lower left wisdom tooth. Does this mean the infection has returned from the first dose of amoxicillin and if so, am I still ok to wait until a week from tomorrow to have the tooth extracted? The reason I have to wait is because the oral surgeon is only in on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and I had important projects I have to get done at work before taking days off.
Avatar m tn Would 1 gram, 3x daily (3 grams daily) of Amoxicillin for 10 days kill Chlamydia and Gonnorea? What other conditions might cause a pinching sensation and a slight red discloration at the tip of my penis?
Avatar n tn My dog just passed away today with an enlarged heart/ heart attack. He was on Temeril P for his whole life (9 years) . Today Is when I found out he had an enlarged heart (this was never caught before) ..I was wondering could the Temeril P have caused him to get an enlarged heart? His heart was so big that it was pushing up on his trachea which was causing him to breath heavy. Over a good period could this medication/ steriod have gotten him sick where he died?
1418362 tn?1282203044 I am allergic to several molds, and have recently been prescribed Amoxicillin for a sinus infection caused by allergies. The mucus has cleared up from green to white, but my allergy symptoms are also worse and I am having severe diarhea which has left me weak, faint and exhausted. Because of sinus blockage, my CPAP machine used for severe sleep apnea has trouble delivering the air to my lungs, so I am haing difficuly sleeping.
Avatar f tn I have had a series of symptoms going on 3 weeks, from a nasal drip, to mucus, laryngitis, to now a deep chest couph. Am on amoxicillin but it doesn't seem to be helping. My chest has this "gurgling". Any help. Getting tired of being sick.
Avatar n tn I've been taking amoxicillin for chlamydia for 5 days now with no relief. It's still very painfull everytime I urinate. On day 5 now, I have an odd taste in my mouth all day. Is that normal when taking amoxicillin?
Avatar n tn We were told to sit on it and wait. For now she is on amoxicillin 2x daily. We were instructed to bring her back to the vets for xrays in 21days if she continues to get bigger and it becomes apparent that she is pregnant. I am not a backyard breeder, I have much experience with bulldogs and am aware of the health complications/birthing complications that can occur. This issue just stumps me...
Avatar m tn my cat is 15 years old. He has a lump under his chin. Can I give him Amoxicillin in capsule 250mg, and how much? Thank you.
