hi everyone

I have an approximately 7-week-old Eastern Gray we have named Dale. We had some struggles with self-nursing, I now have him in a little brace that keeps him from doing so, however, in the time that he was self-nursing I believe he acquired a UTI. his penis and testicles have been swollen for about a week now. I take the scab off every day and make sure his cage and his wound stays clean. I have a 250 mg pill of Augmentin and need help and advice with dosage and administration. Dale weighs 212 grams.

Is this Amoxicillin 250mg + Clavulanate 31.25mg or maybe Amoxicillin 250mg + Clavulanate 62.5mg?

I just want to ensure we are dosing the correct strength.

the person who gave me the pill was actually incorrect on info. I just did some research and the pill says X 33 which is Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium 500 mg / 125 mg. Sorry for the misinformation.

Great Work checking meds ID before dispensing. Its a good practice to double checking always.
