Product Description:

Enrobactin 50mg Tablets are a broad-spectrum veterinary antibiotic used for the treatment of a wide variety of bacterial infections in dogs. The active ingredient, Enrofloxacin, is a potent fluoroquinolone antibiotic that targets both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The 50mg strength is ideal for small to medium-sized dogs requiring accurate lower-dose treatment. This product is available for purchase per tablet, making it a flexible and cost-effective option for short or tailored courses.

Key Features:

• Each tablet contains 50mg of Enrofloxacin
• Effective against respiratory, urinary, gastrointestinal, and skin infections
• Ideal strength for small to medium dogs
• Broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic
• Once-daily dosing in most cases
• Veterinary prescription required in Australia
• Australian-made and APVMA approved

Directions for Use:

Use strictly as directed by your veterinarian. The usual dose is based on the dog’s body weight and the condition being treated. Enrofloxacin may be administered with food to minimise gastrointestinal upset, but peak absorption occurs on an empty stomach. Complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.

Precautions:

• Not recommended for use in dogs under 12 months (or under 18 months in large breeds)
• Do not use in animals with a known sensitivity to fluoroquinolones
