Clavaseptin tablets are indicated for treating bacterial infections in dogs and cats.

What does clavaseptin do for dogs and cats?

Clavaseptin is known as a potentiated antibiotic. It contains two ingredients which work together to significantly increase the effectiveness against certain bacteria. The main antibiotic ingredient (amoxycillin) can be inactivated by certain types of bacteria, rendering them resistant. However the second ingredient (clavulanate) prevents the bacteria from inactivating the antibiotic, allowing the antibiotic to kill the bacteria. Hence Clavaseptin is active against a wide range of bacteria and this combination has become one of the main antibiotics used in veterinary medicine.

Clavaseptin dosage

Give tablets twice a day at a dose rate of 12.5mg/kg

Clavaseptin for dogs

for the treatment or adjunctive treatment of periodontal infections caused by bacteria susceptible to the active substance in combination with clavulanic acid i.e. Pasteurella spp, Streptococcus spp and Escherichia coli.

Clavaseptin for cats

for the treatment of skin infections (including wounds and abscesses) caused by bacteria susceptible to the active substance in combination with clavulanic acid i.e. Pasteurella spp, Staphylococcus spp, Streptococcus spp and Escherichia coli.

Side effects of Clavaseptin

Vomiting and diarrhoea may be observed very rarely. Treatment may be continued depending on the severity of the undesirable effect observed and a benefit/risk evaluation by the veterinary surgeon.

Hypersensitivity reactions (allergic skin reactions, anaphylaxis) may be observed very rarely. In these cases, administration should be discontinued and a symptomatic treatment given.

It may be useful to give probiotics to your dog or cat after antibiotic treatment. You can purchase them here
