Uhoh! I ruined Charlie's medicine.

Could you have a taxi pick it up and deliver to where you work?

I work 50 miles from home.

That's part of why we're gone so long every day - our 2+ hours in the car.

Hmm, any neighbor who is home during the day that could receive it for you? Or pharmacy near where you work to which the vet could call in the prescription?

That's a better idea... have the vet call it in to a pharmacy close to where you work. I've had scripts filled all over, depending on where I've lived and worked. Whatever is convenient, do it that way.

I have some spare pills? I don't know how he is to pill, but I could send you a couple days worth of the pills if you want. PM me with your address and I'll stick them in the mail ASAP

I'll call the vet when they open at 9 AM, and see what they suggest. I don't think the Walgreens in our area carries it (I tried looking it up, and got a not found message). If nothing else, there is ONE neighbor who might be able to swing through and pick up a new bottle, if my hubby gives her his credit card while they're at work. I'll have him talk to her, too.

She gets off work at 2:30 or 3:00 - so unless she has someplace to go that isn't directly home (which is common as her kids are in High School sports and she frequently goes to their games after school/work) maybe she'll be able to do it.

I will post as soon as I get home tonight and let ya'll know what the situation is.

PS: Still feeling terrible and like I'm the worlds worst mom. Although I do know that accidents happen, I just want to kick myself.

You do not need to replace the medicine. Once clavamox liquid is mixed up it is good for up to 7 days at room temp and 14 days in the fridge.

(Clavamox and Amoxil are the same thing but Amoxil if for humans)
