1 Answer

Answer :

Yes. Many of the same medication used to cure or treat common ailments are used for humans, cats, and dogs. However some "human given" antibiotics are not suitable for canines as they will react differently and can be toxic to canines. Also, dosages for any medication will vary depending on the size of the animal and species. Always check with a veterinarian before given an animal any medication.
