Overview
Unless your veterinarian tells you differently, make sure you give the entire prescription. Even if the pet appears to be improving, the treatment program should be finished to avoid the development of resistance or recurrence. The type of the infection will determine the frequency, dose, and length of treatment. The normal oral dose for cats is 2.5 milligrams per pound every 12 hours or 10 milligrams per pound daily. Dogs should be given the medication orally. 5mg per pound of body weight every 12 hours, or 10mg per pound of body weight daily, is the typical dose. Consult your veterinarian for instructions, and never administer medicine without first getting permission from your veterinarian.
