Synulox is the most commonly used antibiotic for dogs and cats in the UK. It contains amoxycillin and clavulanic acid which act together to provide a safe and effective antibiotic with activity against a wide range of bacteria. The tablets are flavoured to ease administration to dogs and cats and are given twice daily. They will normally be eaten from the hand, or can be crumbled and added to food. Synulox is safe to use during pregnancy and lactation in dogs and cats. Smaller animals can be given Synulox Drops, but they are not suitable for small herbivores such as rabbits and guinea pigs, which can develop serious enteritis following the use of this type of antibiotic.
Synulox LC is supplied in single-use syringes to treat mastitis in milking cows.

Jo Forman
Treatment for my 4.5kg cat with an infection on the face from what looks like a bite.
Since this is a Prescription Medication, it will be your Vet who will prescribe you this medication to treat an infection. We are unable to advice further.
Sharon smith
Do these work for a ear infection in a dog?
This is prescription medication, you would need to contact your vet.
Maya
Can these be used with pregnant cats?
I would advise you to seek veterinary advise, your vet will only prescribe this to your pregnant cat if it is safe and suitable.
Nicolle Brooks
My English Mastiff will not take the tablets prescribed by our vet. We have tries every way and think the only way now is liquid.
He’s very poorly with an infection after meniscus surgery. He won’t eat, just stands with his head down crying.
It is strongly advised you discuss this further with your prescribing vets. Synulox palatable drops are only appropriate for small dogs or puppies/kittens, the volume you will need to give per dose will be way too large for a Mastiff to use the drops appropriately.
There are many other antibiotics available, including injectable. Your vet will be able to advise.
Andrew
Does this product need prescription?
Yes it does as this is a prescription only medication (POM-V licensed). More information on written prescriptions can be found in the link provided here.
Louise
How many 500 mg antibiotics do I need to give my large Barbados for a tooth abscess ?
This is a prescription only medication so you will need to discuss the correct doseage with your vet, they will need to write a prescription for your for us to dispense it to you.

Hi the option that says injection? Is this and oral injection just straight into the mouth with a syringe?
This is a prescription only medication and so you should only use it alongside your vets advice. The injectable version (RTU injection) must be injected by the subcutaneous or intramuscular route. The oral version (Palatable drops) can be administered via syringe into the mouth, or onto the feed.
Chloe
The tablets are very hard and quite big for a cat. Is there a suggested way to give? Cat is very poorly and not eating so easiest way possible required please. Too big to force pill, I just end up covered in it.
The datasheet for this medication states the following regarding administration:
By the oral route. Synulox palatable tablets are often accepted from the hand even by sick cats and dogs. Alternatively, the tablets may be crushed and added to a little food.
If you are still struggling after trying the above then it is advised you contact your vet. An alternate option may be required.

My dog jas had two hot spot wounds open up on the back of his neck and behind one ear. Will these antibiotics do the job?
Antibiotics are prescription only medications and so can only be used alongside a prescription from your vet. These antibiotics are often prescribed for skin conditions and so they may be appropriate but you will need to contact your vet for them.
If you are treating a hot spot (a superficial skin infection) then surface scrubs like Vetruus CLX Wipes are a good choice. Ideally the area should be clipped to clear any hair and if cleaned with a good wipe twice daily then it should clear within 5 to 7 days. It is important to know that this is a hot spot though, if you are unsure you should chat to your vet.
