What are Synulox Palatable Drops 15 ml for Dogs 

Synulox Palatable Drops 15 ml Dogs is an antibiotic formulation for dogs (and cats) combining amoxicillin tri-hydrate with potassium clavulanate. It comes as a powder designed to be reconstituted with 15 ml of water. Once prepared, it provides a suspension with 40 mg/ml amoxicillin and 10 mg/ml clavulanic acid. The formulation is widely used by vets for bacterial infections when an easy-to-dose oral liquid is required.

Key Uses of Synulox Palatable Drops 15 ml Dogs

This medication is indicated for dogs with:

• Superficial and deep skin infections (pyodermas)

• Soft tissue infections such as abscesses or post-surgical wounds

• Dental infections including gingivitis and periodontitis

• Urinary tract infections and prostatitis

• Respiratory infections (upper and lower)

• Enteritis (intestinal infections)
  It acts against a broad spectrum of bacteria, including β-lactamase producing strains of Staphylococci and E. coli, making it a versatile choice for many clinical situations.

Formulation and Strength Details

The 15 ml pack is supplied as a powder. After reconstitution with 15 ml clean water, the suspension yields 40 mg amoxicillin plus 10 mg clavulanic acid per ml. A dropper with graduations is included to enable accurate dosage, particularly useful for small dogs. The product is scored for rapid absorption and easy administration.

Dosage and Administration Advice

Your vet determines the exact dose and treatment duration. A typical guide: 0.25 ml per kg body weight twice daily (equivalent to 12.5 mg/kg/day). For small dogs an alternative metric is 5-6 drops per kg twice daily. For more severe or refractory infections, your vet may increase the dose to 0.5 ml per kg twice daily (25 mg/kg/day) under monitoring. Treatment generally runs 5-7 days for routine infections, but for chronic skin disease or cystitis it may extend 10-28 days.

Safety, Contraindications and Important Warnings

Do not use in animals known to be hypersensitive to penicillins or other β-lactam antibiotics. Use with caution in animals with renal disease (especially oliguria or anuria). This product is not licensed for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters or gerbils; caution applies in very small herbivores. Rare side-effects may include vomiting, diarrhoea or allergic reactions. If these occur, stop treatment and consult your vet. Use during pregnancy and lactation is permissible only under veterinary advice.

Storage and Shelf Life

Store the powder at temperatures not exceeding 25 °C. After reconstitution, keep refrigerated at 2-8 °C and discard after 7 days. Always shake the suspension before use.
