What is Clavamox?

Clavamox is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, used for infections caused by bacteria. It is available as chewable tablets or regular tablets. Clavamox is sold by the tablet, and requires a prescription from your veterinarian.

NOTE: Clavamox Drops are also available in a 15 ml bottle.

For:

Cats and Dogs

Benefits:

  • Good for skin and soft tissue infections such as wounds, abscesses, and cellulitis
  • Effective for first-time skin infections and persistent pyodermas (skin inflammation marked by pus-filled lesions)
  • Proven to generally be a safe antibacterial treatment
  • Sold per tablet

How does Clavamox work?

Clavamox combines the broad-spectrum antibiotic activity of amoxicillin with the unique beta-lactamase inhibiting effect of clavulanic acid which makes this product effective against beta-lactamase and non-beta-lactamase producing organisms.

Cautions:

Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet experiences diarrhea that is severe and lasts longer than three days, or if he or she has an allergic reaction (e.g., shortness of breath, hives, swelling of the lips, tongue, or face, rash, or fainting).

Brand Name:

Clavamox (Zoetis)

Generic Name:

Amoxicillin along with clavulanic acid.

What should I discuss with my veterinarian before giving Clavamox to my pet?

Tell your veterinarian if your pet has ever had an allergic reaction to another penicillin or to a cephalosporin. Tell your veterinarian if your pet has liver or kidney disease. Tell your veterinarian if your pet is pregnant or lactating or if your pet could become pregnant during treatment.

Other less serious side effects such as mild diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or yeast or fungal infection may be more likely to occur. Continue to give Clavamox and notify your veterinarian if these symptoms occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to your pet.
