Amoxi-Drops is a semi-synthetic penicillin popular for use in dogs and cats because it is easy to administer, can be given with or without food, and treats a wide array of infections.

It is an orally administered prescription antibiotic that treats a variety of bacterial infections, including ear infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections. It rarely has side effects.

Amoxi Drop contains Amoxicillin and is a versatile penicillin antibiotic tailored for treating infections in dogs and cats. It effectively combats a wide spectrum of bacterial strains, relieving various infections.

Uses: Amoxi Drop is recommended for treating infections caused by susceptible organisms in the following areas:

  • Gastrointestinal Tract Infections:Especially bacterial gastroenteritis, often due to Escherichia coli.

Amoxi Drop inhibits bacterial cell wall mucopeptide biosynthesis, leading to cell death. Its bactericidal action is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens, including streptococcus faecalis, staphylococcus spp, Haemophilus spp, and Pasteurella multocida. Amoxicillin is rapidly absorbed, reaching most body tissues except inflamed meninges. It's excreted unchanged in urine, effectively treating urinary tract infections and other conditions.

Amoxicillin, the active ingredient in Amoxi Drops, is effective against several gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, such as streptococci, pneumococci, Haemophilus influenzae, etc. However, it doesnโ€™t work against infections caused by staphylococci, klebsiella, and enterobacter.

Also, amoxicillin can cause adverse reactions in dogs who are allergic to penicillin.

Answer

Answer

Amoxi Drops is a semi-synthetic penicillin commonly used in cats and dogs for treating a wide range of diseases like respiratory infections, wounds, skin infections, tooth abscesses etc. It is a broad spectrum antibiotic, which is found effective against many strains of gram positive and gram negative bacteria including H. influenzae, N. gonorrhoea, E. coli, Pneumococci, Streptococci etc. Amoxidrops is a popular medication in cats and dogs for its easy administration, ready absorption and flexibility of administration with or without food. As it is not potent against penicillinase, Amoxi Drops cannot be used to treat infections caused by staphylococci, Pseudomonas and most strains of Klebsiella and Enterobacter. It is also not useful in the treatment viral and parasitic attacks. Trihydrate makes up the active ingredient in Amoxi drops.ย 

The veterinary oral suspension of Amoxi-Drops is presented in 15ml and 30ml bottles and the recommended dose for dogs is 5 mg/lb of body weight to be given twice daily for 5-7 days. For cats, an ideal dosage would be 50 mg (5-10 mg/lb).ย

    My wife and I have been involved in the rescue of abandoned, stray, feral and injured cats for the past 20 years. Many of these animals have come to us suffering from injury or illness and we have successfully treated many of these animals with AmoxiDrops. Because AmoxiDrops comes in a dry powder form (activated when mixed with water), we are able to keep it on hand until needed. Very easy to administer (orally), with or without food. As with the administration of all medications, consultation with your veterinarian is a must.
