I have an 18 month old westie. She has been prescribed Amoxi-clav 62.5 mg for a UTI. She has been taking 1 and 1/2 pill twice daily and has been taking it since 1-9-19 ......her UTI seems gone but now has very soft stools and loss of appetite. Should I quit giving the med???

It's always recommended to complete the full course of antibiotics, and only the vet who prescribed Baby the medication can make the determination to stop giving them or not. You need to call her vet to let them know you are seeing these side effects, and they will advise you if you can stop or not. Legally we can't do that without seeing her in person. Best of luck.
