Answer by  jinxmeow94 (56)

Yes,and yes, but it should be prescibed by a vet, you should never give your pets medication intended for humans. it can make them very sick or might be fatal.

Those medications are commonly used for dogs. However, the dosage/usage depends on the size and age of the dog as well as the symptom you intend to treat. Consult with a veterinarian for a professional evaluation on the problem because overdose or wrong diagnosis can be dangerous and end up costing a lot more than a simple vet visit.

Giving a dog benadryl is fine if you give it to them in the childrens dosage. Just remember they will be drowsy just like it makes us. Only give them clavamox if it is prescribed because it is a strong antibiotic. In many ways you treat your dog like you would your child.

Yes, you can give both of these medication to dogs. However, you should use baby benadryl and only give the dog half of the dosage so you can see if his behavior changes before giving him a full dose.

A vet for pet, skin allergies and infection sometimes prescribes Benadryl and Clavamox. Do not give to your dog unless it is approved for your pet. If you do not know if your dog is allergic to Clavamox, talk to your veterinarian and have him do some testing before administering this medication.

Yes you can give them Benadryl as far as Clavamox you will need to check with your vet alot of human medications are very deadly to animals and I am sure you do not want that to happen. But if you call your vet they will be able to tell you right away.
