What Synulox Palatable Tablets Are

Synulox Palatable Tablets are a combination antibiotic tablet for dogs. They include amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. The tablets come in 50 mg, 250 mg and 500 mg strengths. Many dogs accept them by hand; alternatively they can be crushed and mixed with a little food.

Key Indications for Use

These tablets are indicated for dogs with bacterial infections, for example:

• Skin infections, including superficial and deep pyoderma.

• Soft tissue infections such as abscesses or anal-sacculitis.

• Dental and gum infections (e.g., gingivitis).

• Urinary tract infections, including prostatitis.

• Respiratory infections (upper and lower airway).

• Enteritis and gastrointestinal infections.
  Because the formulation has broad-spectrum activity, it often features in veterinary treatment of mixed or complex infections.

Active Ingredients & Strengths

Synulox Palatable Tablets are available in multiple strengths, including 50 mg, 250 mg and 500 mg. For example, the 250 mg tablet contains 200 mg amoxicillin (as trihydrate) and 50 mg clavulanic acid.
The tablets are circular, pink and marked with “SYNULOX” on one face.

Dosage & Administration

Dent most dogs, the standard dose is 12.5 mg per kg body weight, given twice daily. For routine cases, treatment usually lasts 5-7 days. In more chronic or refractory cases, the dose may be increased (e.g., 25 mg/kg twice daily) and duration extended (10-28 days) depending on veterinary assessment.
The tablet may be given directly or crushed and mixed with food for ease of administration.
