What’s the difference in cephalexin and simplicef
Cephalexin and Simplicef are both cephalosporins, so they are the same group of antibiotics, but cephalexin is the generic name for a 1st generation cephalosporin and Simplicef is a trade name for Cefpodoxime which is a 3rd generation cephalosporin (so it is a newer drug) and works better in some circumstances. Here is more information on both drugs. https://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=538 https://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=2038 I hope that was helpful! Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

I accidently gave my 70 lb dog a second dose of 150 mg of simplicef. Do I need to be worried?
You may see some vomiting and/or diarrhea. More serious toxicity is not a concern with a double dose of this antibiotic. Fast Milo for 24 hours then feed a bland diet in small, frequent amounts until symptoms resolve if necessary.

Hi Dr kothman called in a prescription for doxycycline 100mg and 100 tablets I would like to compare the price that was called into our local HEB with your price.
We don't sell prescription drugs here since we are only a consulting forum. However, if you want to do comparison prices for drugs then the best resource is https://www.goodrx.com OR calling the pharmacy of your choosing directly. I wish you all the best and hope that you can find an affordable price for your pets medication. Take care!

Please can you tell me the dosages of the following drugs for a 30.5 kg dog and how many litres of Aqupharm you would use cerenia omperazple ranitidine buprecare prednisone (predindale) synthadon marbocyl mycophenolate zofran melt anivit vomend co
Unfortunately, we are not permitted to give out drug dosages without a veterinarian - client - pet relationship. If you are seeking this information, I would obtain it through a veterinarian in person or through a veterinary formulary such as Plumb's or Merck. Hope this makes sense.

What are the recommended antibiotics for dogs?
This would depend on the type of antibiotic being treated. Do not medicate your pet without the advice of your veterinarian. Inappropriate antibiotic use can lead to resistant bacteria and may complicate any underlying condition.
