UsesAlbon (sulfadimethoxine) is effective for treating a wide range of bacterial infections commonly encountered in dogs and cats. It is indicated for use in dogs and cats with respiratory, genital and urinary tracts and soft-tissue infections. It is also indicated for treating dogs with bacterial enteritis associated with coccidiosis.
Possible Side EffectsThis medication can cause crystals in your pets urine but sickness can be prevented by keeping your pet well-hydrated. If animals take Albon Liquid 5% chronically, it can cause dry eye or keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS). Always stop using Albon Liquid 5% and consult with your veterinarian if your pet's eyes appear red, inflamed, or infected.
Drug & Food InteractionsAlbon (Sulfadimethoxine) is not effective in viral or rickettsial infections, and as with any antibacterial agent, occasional failures in therapy may occur due to resistant microorganisms. The usual precautions in sulfonamide therapy should be observed.
Precautions
During the treatment period, make sure that pets maintain adequate water intake. If animals show no improvement within 2 or 3 days, reevaluate your diagnosis. Albon should not be used in dogs or cats with marked liver damage, blood dyscrasias, or in those with a history of sulfonamide hypersensitivity.

Coccidiosis meds
By cure on Mar 14, 2021
Coccidiosis medicine in flavored liquid is easy to administer to my pets. Much better than trying to get them to swallow tablets with peanut butter, liverwurst, etc.

why the delay?
By jaxcat on Sep 2, 2020
I ordered this for puppies and it took almost 3 weeks to get to me. the delay was because of a different drug I also ordered and the confusion over that drug's label (canine vs. equine for the exact same product) - I do not understand why this script for a different dog - was held up so that it all could come in one box. I also ordered a toy at the same time and THAT was shipped separately - there was no hurry on the toy!

Great results.
By ChickenVersusChickenLiver on Oct 12, 2019
My vet recommended this product, because my 3 kittys were having soft stools, another vet had recommended something that did not work. This product solved the problem since they had it they immediately started having normal stool I highly recommended it.
