My dog threw up UTI meds. What alternatives for sensitive stomach?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 4 years and 11 months old | 47 lbs

We took my dog to our vet today for a UTI and our dog was prescribed ENROFLoxacin 136mg. Our dog threw up a lot after taking this RX. What alternatives are there to this medication. Especially if a dog has a sensitive stomach?

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I recommend contacting Annie’s veterinarian to discuss the appropriate antibiotic for her. Medication choice depends on what type of infection they found and if culture/sensitively was performed. Be sure to feed her before medication. In some cases smaller can be given more frequently, or different antibiotic or possibly a long lasting injection may be given if she can not tolerate oral medications Good luck I hope she’s better soon.
