Eliminate stubborn bacterial infections in your pets with Rilexine Chewable Tablets, a premium veterinary-grade antibiotic developed by Virbac. Powered by Cephalexin, a highly effective first-generation cephalosporin, this broad-spectrum antibiotic works from the inside out by disrupting bacterial cell wall synthesis. Rilexine is globally trusted by veterinarians as the gold-standard treatment for canine and feline skin infections (pyoderma), infected wounds, deep abscesses, and acute urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Key Product Benefits:

• Highly Palatable Chew: Formulated as a tasty, easy-to-administer chewable tablet that pets readily accept as a treat, eliminating the struggle of traditional pill dosing. 
• Precise Size Variations: Available in 75mg, 300mg, and 600mg strengths, allowing for exact dosing tailored precisely to small kittens, medium dogs, or extra-large breeds. 

Active Ingredient Per Tablet:

• Cephalexin (as Cephalexin Monohydrate available in 75 mg, 300 mg, or 600 mg variants) 

📋 Veterinary Administration & Dosage Guidelines

Rilexine is a potent, advanced antibiotic. Dosing must be calculated strictly based on your pet’s exact body weight, following a veterinarian's explicit prescription. 

General Guidance:

• Standard Clinical Dosage: The universally accepted dose is 15 mg/kg body weight administered orally twice daily (every 12 hours). 
• Quick Weight-to-Tablet Match (Approximate):
  • Rilexine 75mg: Ideal for small cats and toy dogs weighing around 5 kg (approx. 11 lbs).
  • Rilexine 300mg: Ideal for medium dogs weighing around 20 kg (approx. 44 lbs).
  • Rilexine 600mg: Ideal for large dog breeds weighing around 40 kg (approx. 88 lbs). 
• Administration Tip: Can be given with or without food. If your dog or cat experiences mild stomach sensitivity after taking the tablet, administering it alongside a small meal can help ease digestion. 
• Complete the Full Course: Never stop the treatment early, even if the skin lesion clears up completely or the pet feels better. Stopping early can trigger a severe bacterial relapse and contribute to dangerous antibiotic resistance.

⚠️ Important Veterinary Health & Safety Information

• Visual Description & Symptoms: The product consists of round, scored, pleasantly flavored chewable tablets safely packaged in child-resistant blister packs inside an official box. It is typically sought after when companion animals exhibit clinical signs of bacterial contamination, such as intense skin scratching with oozing sores or crusts (pyoderma), infected puncture wounds and lacerations, or frequent straining and blood in the urine (UTIs).
• Three Potential Side Effects: While highly efficient and widely tolerated, monitor your pet closely for potential adverse reactions, which include:
  1. Mild gastrointestinal upset (temporary loose stools, mild vomiting, or a brief loss of appetite).
  2. Hypersensitivity or allergic reactions (such as sudden skin rashes, hives, or swelling around the face).
  3. Increased salivation or drooling (rarely seen, primarily in sensitive cats). 
• CRITICAL Penicillin Sensitivity Warning: Do not use Rilexine in animals with a known hypersensitivity or allergy to cephalosporins or penicillins, as cross-reactivity can trigger severe allergic reactions. Do not use in rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, or gerbils, as cephalexin can disrupt their delicate gut flora with fatal consequences. Always verify the milligram strength and the expiration date on the box before use.
