It can also be used to treat respiratory tract infections in pets. The active ingredient, orbifloxacin, is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Also, it kills other bacterial pathogens, such as Staphylococcus Intermedius, Enterobacter Agglomerans, and Pasteurella Multocida. The drug has a low incidence of side effects and is generally considered safe for dogs and cats.

Orbax is an FDA-approved antibiotic belonging to the quinolone/fluoroquinolone class. It’s effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as other pathogens.

Make sure you talk to your vet regarding the right dosage and duration of treatment.

Orbax is an FDA-approved broad-spectrum antibiotic that’s used for the treatment of various infections in cats and dogs. While Orbax is approved for administering to pet animals, its use for farm animals, such as horses and rabbits, is categorized as off-label. That means you can give Orbax to treat infections in rabbits. But you need to carefully follow the vet’s instructions regarding dosage, frequency, and side effects. Also, watch out for signs of adverse side effects, such as seizures, incoordination, and labored breathing.

A dirty litter box won’t directly cause urinary tract infections in cats. But cats are known to be extremely particular about hygiene and cleanliness. They easily get turned away by dirty litter boxes, and will try to hold their waste in for long periods. This, in turn, could take a toll on their kidneys and cause UTI. It is, therefore, recommended that you regularly clean your cat’s litter box. Also, if you observe any signs of urinary distress or infection in your cat, immediately plan a visit to your vet. Typically, your vet will prescribe an antibiotic, such as Orbax, to treat the infection.

Orbax tablets don’t have any distinct flavor or taste. Orbax suspension liquid is malt-flavored to make it more palatable for your dog. If your pet doesn’t enjoy taking the medication, make sure you talk to your veterinarian about an alternative way of administering the drug. Also, keep a few treats handy after giving the medication to help your pet form a positive connection with the drug.

The duration of treatment with Orbax depends on the type of infection that’s being treated. Typically, the dosage ranges between 1.15 mg and 3.5 mg per pound of bodyweight every 24 hours. The recommended duration of treatment for skin infections is 5 to 10 days. Other types of infections required treatment for a longer duration. If you notice any signs of bacterial infection in your pet, make sure you book an appointment with your veterinarian. Ask them to prescribe the correct dosage of Orbax for your cat. Also, discuss the duration of treatment, and the right way to administer the medication to your pet.
