What Amoxibactin Tablets for Dogs Are

Amoxibactin is an amoxicillin-based antibiotic tablet used under veterinary supervision. It treats a range of bacterial infections in dogs, including infections of the airways, skin and urogenital tract. It is UK-authorised and strictly prescription only.

These tablets are indicated for:

• Primary and secondary airway infections (for example, rhinitis, bronchopneumonia) caused by Pasteurella spp, Escherichia coli, and Streptococci.

• Infections of the urogenital tract, such as pyelonephritis, lower urinary tract infections, endometritis and vaginitis with mixed organisms.

• Mastitis caused by Gram-positive cocci and E. coli.

• Localised skin infections caused by Streptococcus spp.

Active Ingredient and Formulation

Each tablet contains amoxicillin (e.g., the 250 mg strength contains 250 mg amoxicillin, equivalent to 287.50 mg amoxicillin trihydrate) for dogs. The tablets are white to off-white with brown spots. They are scored so that they can be halved or quartered for accurate dosing.

Dosage and Administration Guidance

Your vet will determine the correct dose, but the standard guide is 10 mg amoxicillin per kg bodyweight, given twice daily for a minimum of 5 consecutive days. Many routine cases respond within 5 to 7 days. If there is no improvement, a re-evaluation is required. Tablets can be divided into halves or quarters if required for accurate dosing. They may be given with or without food according to the veterinary instructions.

Safety, Contraindications and Warnings

• Do not use in known cases of hypersensitivity to penicillins or other β-lactam antibiotics.

• Use with caution in animals with severe renal dysfunction (anuria or oliguria) – risk/benefit must be evaluated.

• Use only the following susceptibility testing, particularly where resistance is suspected (e.g., E. coli multiresistant strains).

• Very rare side-effects: vomiting, diarrhoea or hypersensitivity reactions (including anaphylaxis).

• Safety in pregnancy and lactation is not fully established—use only when the benefit outweighs the risk.

Storage and Shelf Life

Store below 30 °C in the original blister packaging. Once a tablet has been split, the unused portion should be used within four days. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
