Just to point out really unscientific personal experience,
clavamox TASTES REALLY BAD, and it's hard to get it INSIDE the cat, so I usually
ask
interesting! at the sanctuary, doxy was the one that caused the
foaming at the mouth, and the incredible avoidance behavior! it's
really bad for the ego when you go into the special-needs room, where
many of the sweetest cats were, including quite a number of good
friends, and watch them run away
Doxicycline definitely does that if it gets in their mouth at all. I cover
it with Nutristat before pilling with it for that and other reasons.

I've begun to put Grace's Dox in a small gel cap, (even the smallest gel
cap I could find is too big, I trim it with a scissors first), then
cover it with a drop of salmon oil to make sure it's slippery. So far,
it seems to be working.

Hey Kerry,
I got the gel
I always ask a vet WHY they choose a particular medication for one of my
furkids and I get better responses from some than others. I also look up
medication in the Merck manual or an online source to find out what is in it
(if I
don't already know) and what it is recommended for.

Kerry,
Apparently, Dox is used long-term in fighting Lyme disease etc. in
humans. Some people are on it for over a year. If I remember
correctly, Dox does not kill the parasite it's fighting
Dear all
I guess I'm trying to educate myself today--does anyone know why a vet
would choose to prescribe one over the other--I've been prescribed Doxi
and Clavamox at different times by different vets for the same
problem--URIs. (Baytril hasn't come up so far.)
thanks again

Doxi is stronger and broader spectrum
When Grace crashed the first time, she was put on two separate doses of
Clavomox. She would finally start to respond by the 10th or 11th day of
treatment, only to crash again two or three days after we stopped.
Clavomox and Amoxicillin seem to be the ones the vets reach for first.
good point, nina--some cats just seem to need to remain on antibiotics
(despite the obvious drawbacks) to keep from relapsing...
