Disregard my earlier advice about not doing the full ten days of anti-biotics.

Betadine is your friend.

Augmentin is the choice for animal bites.

 

[ROS]

Indeed, but he's still oozing and horse AB's cure anything.

Nope.

Amoxicillin-clavulanate potassium (Augmentin) is the antibiotic of choice for a dog bite. For patients who are allergic to penicillin, doxycycline (Vibramycin) is an acceptable alternative, except for children younger than eight years and pregnant women. Erythromycin can also be used, but the risk of treatment failure is greater because of antimicrobial resistance.7,10 Other acceptable combinations include clindamycin (Cleocin) and a fluoroquinolone in adults or clindamycin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim, Septra) in children.11 When compliance is a concern, daily intramuscular injections of ceftriaxone (Rocephin) are appropriate.

My indoor cat got me last year, bit through the thumbnail, right down into a tendon on the palm of my right hand, and twice on my left forefinger. I never let go of her as I was bringing her in the house, dropped her, ran to the kitchen sink and mixed 1 part bleach, 3 parts water and stuck my hands in them. Went to the doctor the next day, 3 days of 1gm Rocephin injection, 10 days antibiotics. Doc couldn't believe after her JUST doing all that I had the nerve to stick my hands in bleach water. LOL

 

[ROS]

Nope.
