My vet hospital sent me home with amoxicillin for my cat. She has a bladder infection. But it’s still in powder form, not reconstituted. They are closed and my cat is really uncomfortable. Can I add liquid safely?

Thank you for contacting Petcoach with your question about Macy and for providing pictures, it's very helpful. Yes, you can add water to it. You will need to add the correct amount of water to it in order to make the solution. For a 15ml size bottle, add 12ml of water. For a 30ml bottle, which is what I suspect you may have but check the bottle to be safe, add 23ml of water. I hope this helps!
