Antibiotics for Cats
Antibiotics are commonly prescribed medications used to treat infections in cats. They don’t work against viruses or parasites, but they are highly effective at preventing and treating bacterial infections. Antibiotics for cats are available in a variety of forms, including pills, drops, ointments, sprays, gels, and injections. These medications are often not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in animals, but veterinarians may prescribe them for “off-label” use. Because of their size and unique biology, you should never give your cat human antibiotics and instead only provide antibiotics that have been prescribed or recommended by a veterinarian. Many antibiotics have side effects and may be dangerous for pregnant cats or cats with certain medical conditions.
Things to consider when buying antibiotics for cats:
• Amoxicillin: This common broad-spectrum antibiotic is used to treat conditions skin infections, ear problems, and urinary tract infections.
• Doxycycline: This is often used to treat Chlamydia felis infection, which can cause pink eye in cats. It may also be used to manage heartworm disease.
• Clindamycin: This may be prescribed for skin infections, wounds, abscesses, respiratory infections, and dental issues.
• Metronidazole: This medication is both an antibiotic and an antiprotozoal that targets a type of parasite called protozoa. This may be prescribed for digestive tract conditions.
• Terramycin: This is a commonly prescribed ointment used to treat pink eye or other eye conditions in cats. It’s a combination of the antibiotic oxytetracycline and a medication called polymyxin B, which targets dangerous organisms.
Antibiotics are highly effective drugs but they may cause side effects such as diarrhea and vomiting in your cat. If you have questions about using antibiotics in your cat, including over-the-counter formulations, it’s always a good idea to check with your veterinarian.
Frequently Asked Questions about Antibiotics for Cats
How do I get cat antibiotics prescriptions online at Chewy Pharmacy?

What prescription cat antibiotics are best?
The best prescription antibiotics are the ones your vet recommends for your kitty. Commonly prescribed antibiotics for cats include enrofloxacin, Clavamox and Baytril, but the right medicine will depend on what kind of infection your cat has and factors like age, allergies and habits. Follow the instructions your veterinarian gives you, finish the entire prescription and never give your kitty any prescription medication not prescribed by your vet.
Do antibiotics make cats sleepy?
Antibiotics do make cats sleepy sometimes, but the effects sometimes get better as they adjust to the medication. Other common side effects of antibiotics in cats include lethargy, nausea and/or a loss of appetite. Some cats can also experience allergic reactions like hives, rashes, stomach irritation, vomiting or diarrhea. Alert your vet about any concerning side effects that you may notice while your cat is on medication.
How do I give my cat antibiotics?
Give your cat antibiotics by following the instructions on the packaging closely for dosing and administration instructions. Eye and ear antibiotics often come in liquid or ointment forms, and these are usually applied directly to the affected area. For oral medications, hiding them in a treat or pill pouch may get your cat to ingest them voluntarily. Liquid or crushed pill medications can sometimes be mixed into tuna juice or wet food, too. If you have to pill your cat, open her mouth by putting your fingers over her head and holding the upper incisors. Then, tilt the head back and deposit the pill as far back on the tongue as possible. Finally, close the mouth and blow on your cat’s nose or massage the throat to make her swallow. Consult with your vet on the best ways to administer each type of antibiotic and look online for instructional videos that may help you.
