For those who have experience with Baytril.. The vet prescribed Baytril for Reese's bladder infection..22.7 mg (1 pill) per day.. Is that the correct dosage..she vomited this morning and I am nervous. Thanks |

Did she have her pill with food? Most antibiotics should be taken with a meal since they can cause tummy upset. |
I just want to make sure the mg. amount is right...I have read up on how it is an strong medication...Anyone use the same mg. with their yorkie? |
Baytril 22.7 mg~ for a 3.4 lb dog the dosage was 1/4 pill once a day. Hope this helps. |
I'm surprised they didn't try Clavamox, especially if the urine was cultured. Baytril makes me nervous. I don't know the dose because I have never had to use it for Ellie. |
baytril dosage That dosage doesn't sound out of line at once a day but try to make sure fluid intake is adaquate as this can sometimes cause crystals to form in urine |
Why does it make you nervous? Now I feel nervous....:confused: |
the dosage is just fine. baytril is a very common drug used for infections. Clavamox is more of a general antibiotic. how much does your dog weigh? |

It is just that Baytril has been connected to blindness...but that is more so in cats and at higher doses. It just isn't my first choice but your dog is under the supervision of a vet so don't worry.:) Ellie is about to take an antibiotic that I am not comfortable with (flagyl)... That doesn't mean it is really that dangerous though. |
I have used Baytril with no side effects. I was told to use 9 mg. per lb. and to give that dosage once per day. I have also given 1/2 of the dosage twice per day. |
Thank you for the feedback. Reese weighs about 6 1/2 lbs... |
