Doxyvet is a veterinary doxycycline tablet from Vetafarm for dogs and cats with bacterial infections of the skin, respiratory tract and genitourinary tract caused by susceptible organisms. It is a prescription-style antibiotic dosed by weight: a loading schedule of 5 mg/kg followed by 2.5 mg/kg doses, then a once-daily maintenance dose of 2.5 mg/kg with food. Compared with doxycycline capsules or liquid suspensions, tablets are easier to split for small animals but harder to fine-tune for very small pets. Owners rate it highly, and the main cautions are stomach upset and the need to finish the course.
