Troubleshooting
Pet refuses to eat the tablet
Try hiding the tablet inside a small portion of wet food, a specialized pill pocket, or a soft treat to mask the texture and flavor.

Monitor the pet and contact your veterinarian; they may recommend administering the tablet with a small amount of food to improve tolerance.
Infection symptoms return after treatment ends
Contact your veterinarian immediately as this may indicate the need for a longer course of treatment or a different antibiotic approach.
