Penicillin is a prescription medication in the USA. I would suggest you talk to your doctor about what you need while traveling and get him to write you prescriptions. Bottles of prescription meds, properly and legally labeled, will cause you much less hassle thru customs, etc.
Have a great, safe, and healthy trip!

Don't dare buy penicillin over the internet. You don't know what you could be getting and by the sounds of it you don't have the ability to check what it actually is. Antibiotics are good at stopping infections but they also kill other bacteria in your body that you need to survive. If used in the wrong way they can be lethal. If anything goes wrong go to a doctor.

More importantly, why do you want penicillin? If you think you have an infection of some kind you really should see your doctor. If necessary he/she can prescribe penicillin for you.

Penicillin requires a prescription in the US, either from a dentist or a physician. It is not available over the counter.

You can never b certain when or how we are going to become ill, so i think you should concentrate on having a fantastic time away and stop worrying that you will get sick!!! you never know, without the stress of everyday life, whatever it is your expecting to suffer from may not bother you!. Oh and it is NEVER safe to buy drugs/medication via the internet, its just not safe as there is no guarentee as to what your getting!.

You can more than likely buy the pet version without any problems. It's basically the same thing. Here's a link http://www.1800petmeds.com/pdetail.asp?SK=3319&SP=dog&MG=375 , but I'm sure there's many more places out there.

My veterinarian has been treating my dogs for over 10 years now. The thing I like about him the most is that he is compassionate, the thing I like the worst is that he uses dog urinary tract infection antibiotics for almost anything that comes his way. He and I have had the discussion about the overuse of dog urinary tract infection antibiotics on my dogs but he genuinely thinks that it is not only justified but appropriate. I guess in some ways we are both on far ends of the spectrum, with my veterinarian leaning towards conventional drug therapy and myself leaning more towards the preventative holistic style of medicine. And quite honestly if you were to poll the general population there would be close to a 50 percent split between those believing that a natural approach is best or the pharmaceutical approach is best.

But could it be possible that the answer lies somewhere in the middle? Could the use of dog urinary tract infection antibiotics combined with homeopathic UTI remedies and urinary tract conditioning formulas along with diet modification, stress reduction, plenty of water spiked with cranberry juice, and an age suitable diet be the best approach? I will leave this for you to decide but now why don't we move on to the most often prescribed dog urinary tract infection antibiotics.
*Clavamox: This is one of the many brand names for amoxicillin and will likely be your vets first choice for everything from a UTI to tooth abscesses. It works well against the staphylococci, streptococci, enterococci, and proteus bacteria. Clavamox/Amoxicillin may produce some minor side effects but is generally considered one of the safer dog urinary tract infection antibiotics.
*Baytril: This is one of the more powerful dog urinary tract infection antibiotics that works by scrambling the DNA of bacterial causing them to die off. Baytril/Enrofloxacin is generally used as a primary treatment only when others fail due to its potential side effects.
*Keflex: Keflex kills more types of bacteria than does amoxicillin and is consider a broad spectrum drug. Keflex/Cephalexin is effective against staphylococci, streptococci, proteus, escherichia coli, and klebsiella. Many pet owners like this drug due to the fact it can be mixed with their pets water for easy administration.
*Other dog urinary tract antibiotics that might be prescribed are: ampicillin, ceftiofur, gentamicin, nitrofurantoin, tetracycline, and trimethoprim.
In conclusion, dog urinary tract infection antibiotics are an important first line of treatment but can and often due produce some side effects. This leads us back to using natural means to help improve convention treatment results as well as acting as a preventative measure against future infection and chronic UTI recurrence. A combination of a natural UTI pet supplement, plenty of clean fresh water spiked with cranberry juice, an extra 5 minutes of play time daily, an age and ph appropriate diet, and regular bathroom breaks every couple of hours can make a huge difference in your dogs urinary and overall health.
