CATDOLL : How much oxytetracycline should a cat take at one time

The dosage of oxytetracycline for adult cats is half a tablet per time, and for kittens is 1/4 tablet per time, once a day. Giving oxytetracycline to cats, generally three times a day for three to five consecutive days, can effectively control the disease. And when feeding oxytetracycline, it should be noted that the animal should be fed when it is hungry, because when the animal is hungry, the bioavailability of oxytetracycline is higher, about 60% to 80%, and the presence of stomach contents can reduce its absorption by 50% or even more. In addition, oxytetracycline should not be fed together with probiotics.

Notes on feeding medicine to cats:

1. When feeding cats, you must prescribe the right medicine for the condition, and do not give cats random medicine. If a cat is sick, you must go to a professional pet store or pet hospital to see a doctor, and give the cat the correct medicine under the doctor's guidance. Only when the medicine is taken correctly can it be effective.

2. Follow the rules when giving cats medicine. The use of most medicines is determined by the cat's weight. Taking medicines together will increase the burden on the cat and may even cause poisoning of the cat.

3. Pay more attention to the use of medicines. Do not feed medicines to cats blindly, and do not feed them based on your own subjective judgment.
