When your family pet is ill, there are unique family dynamics that are involved. Because your family dog or family cat is unable to verbalize how they feel, they will rely heavily upon your instincts and willingness to seek medical attention on their behalf.
For many cats, there is a risk for developing a complication involving a respiratory infection that must be treated with antibiotic medications. When your cat has fallen ill, it is important to seek veterinarian attention as soon as possible as medications are often necessary to resolve the infection.
Many veterinarians today are prescribing an antibiotic known as Lincocin to resolve respiratory infection in cats. As an injection that is administered intramuscularly, your cat may realize the benefits of Lincocin rather quickly. While dogs generally obtain Lincocin in oral administration, most veterinarians will supply the antibiotic therapy by injection when your cat has fallen ill. In most cases, this administration of Lincocin is utilized when your cat suffers from a staph infection or strep infection.
While respiratory infections are commonly treated with Lincocin, we can also utilize this antibiotic to treat other complications in your cat’s health. If your cat is struggling to overcome a complication involving abscess, infected wounds, tonsillitis and even laryngitis, Lincocin can be prescribed for these types of infections as well.
If your cat suffers from a pre-existing health complication, such as that involving an infection known as monilial, the use of Lincocin may not be indicated. For this reason, it is important that your veterinarian is familiar with the health history of your cat and considers any potential adverse side effects. While some side effects are expected, such as that involving diarrhea and occasional vomiting, these side effects are generally mild and can be alleviated with the intramuscular use of Lincocin rather than oral administration.
To ensure your cat’s optimal health outcome, it is important to seek veterinarian care as soon as complications of infection arise. In many cases, when a cat has fallen ill, the remedy is often administered by injection and requires very little follow up care. If your cat is struggling to overcome infection that is staph or step in origin, ask a veterinarian about the health benefits in using prescription Lincocin injections. With early intervention, your cat can gain full recovery of the staph or strep infection without the risk for developing long term health complications and with minimal side effects.
