Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. The medications Cassie is currently on are safe to administer to her. The Amoxicillin Clavulanic acid is an antibiotic and the Destolit will help support her liver function. To help support liver function, I also recommend using Denamarin liver supplement which can be found online quite easily. I would discuss starting Denamarin with your vet first prior to adding any an additional supplement into the mix. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
