What are Veraflox Tablets?
Veraflox Tablets are used to treat bacterial infections in cats and dogs. In cats they can be used as a treatment for acute infections of the upper respiratory tract caused by bacteria such as E-coli.
In dogs, it has been found to be effective in treating conditions like soft tissue infections, skin diseases, periodontal infections and infections of the urinary tract.
The recommended dose is 3mg per kg body weight of pradofloxacin once a day. Due to the available tablet sizes, the dose range is 3.0 to 4.5 mg per kg of body weight. Make sure your cat or dog is weighed accurately to ensure the correct dose is given.
The time span of the treatment depends on the infection’s nature and severity as well as the response to treatment. For most cats, it should be for three days.
In dogs, the treatment should be re-considered if no improvement is spotted in three days. In cases of superficial pyoderma, it is seven days, and in cases of deep pyoderma in dogs, 14 days. Please follow dosing instructions given by your vet.
How do Veraflox Tablets work?
The active ingredient pradofloxacin works by putting a block on some of the bacteria’s enzymes which are vital in allowing them to copy their DNA. By blocking two separate enzymes, pradofloxacin stops the bacteria from increasing and multiplying.
