This antibiotic helps your cat heal from infections from wounds and abscesses caused by susceptible strains of Gram-negative, Gram-positive, and anaerobic bacteria (Pasteurella multocida, Streptococcus canis, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphlyococcus felis and Staphylococcus pseudintermedius). Veraflox is available in a 15 ml bottle with an included dosing syringe and requires a prescription from your veterinarian.
Cats (12+ weeks of age)
Veraflox works by attacking the essential target enzymes needed for the reproduction of Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria.

The safety of pradofloxacin in immune-compromised cats (i.e., cats infected with feline leukemia virus and/or feline immuno-deficiency virus) has not been evaluated. The safety of pradofloxacin in cats that are pregnant, breeding or lactating has not been evaluated.
