(12PressRelease.com) Baytril is a pet medicine whose active ingredient is called enrofloxacin and is manufactured by Bayer Pharmaceutical Corporation. The drug is an antimicrobial medicine for prevention of infections in pets. The drug is especially useful in treating infections by inhibiting the multiplication of bacteria by interfering with mechanisms of DNA replication. The mode of action for the drug is through interfering with enzymes responsible for the formation of DNA structures in bacterial cells.
Baytril medication is used to treat many types of bacterial infections such as urinary tract, skin, prostate, gastro intestinal tract and lungs in pets; however, its use should only be under prescription by a veterinarian. Administration of the drug is easy since it is available in easily chewable tablets which are flavored to increase palatability. Pets should be given plenty of water to drink after the drug has been administered.
The FDA has approved Baytril as a veterinary medicine for use in treating dogs and cats. The drug may be given orally by wrapping it in meat or sausages or it may be given straight by it putting into the mouth. Another mode of administration is through subcutaneous injections for dogs and cats or intravenous or intramuscular injections for cattle and pigs. Baytril oral solutions can be given to pets through mixing in milk for young pets or incorporation into drinking water for older ones. For skin and ear infections the drug is administered through application of drops on the affected areas.
The use of Baytril as with other drugs may be associated with a few side effects which in dogs include vomiting diarrhea, elevated levels of liver enzymes, and sometimes depression. In cats the same side effects may occur accompanied by vision loss and aggression. It is important for your veterinarian to know all the other kinds of medications that your pet is taking as drug interactions may occur with possible harmful effects.
