Clivet ND combines the powerful antibiotic Clindamycin (300mg) with Nicotinamide (50mg) to offer a synergistic advantage in treating infections and inflammation in pets. This formulation is particularly effective against targeted anaerobic bacterial infections, making it ideal for conditions like osteomyelitis, periodontal infections, and skin redness and swelling. It also helps control post-surgical tenderness and infections, promoting faster recovery. The combination of Clindamycin and Nicotinamide provides a dual-action benefit—while Clindamycin works as a strong antibiotic, Nicotinamide aids in reducing inflammation and redness, offering relief and faster healing for your pets. Clivet ND is dosed based on the condition being treated, with specific guidelines for dental, bone, and skin infections.

Clivet ND comes in a single variation because it is formulated as a highly effective and specialized product that addresses specific needs, such as reducing inflammation and targeting anaerobic infections. The combination of Clindamycin and Nicotinamide in the same tablet allows for a synergistic effect, providing optimal results without the need for multiple formulations. This single variation is sufficient to treat a variety of conditions, including osteomyelitis, skin infections, and post-surgical tenderness, ensuring a simple, effective solution for pets. The one-dose format makes it easier for both veterinarians and pet owners to manage the treatment, ensuring better compliance and consistent therapeutic benefits.
Clindamycin, a potent antibiotic, targets and inhibits the growth of anaerobic bacteria, making it especially effective in treating infections in areas with limited oxygen availability, such as deep tissue wounds and bone infections. When combined with Nicotinamide, which has anti-inflammatory properties, the therapeutic effect is enhanced, as Nicotinamide helps reduce swelling, redness, and tenderness associated with bacterial infections. This combination improves the overall healing process in tissues affected by bacterial and inflammatory conditions.
Clindamycin is particularly effective against bone infections like osteomyelitis, and periodontal infections that involve the gums and teeth. In addition, it plays a crucial role in managing skin infections such as pyoderma, where deep bacterial infections may cause swelling and redness. The anti-inflammatory properties of Nicotinamide further help to reduce the discomfort and visible signs of infection, facilitating faster recovery and enhancing overall healing in these areas.
After surgical procedures, especially those involving deep tissue or bones, there is an increased risk of infection and inflammation. Clivet ND effectively reduces this risk by combining Clindamycin's powerful antibacterial action with Nicotinamide's ability to decrease inflammation. This dual action helps prevent infection, swelling, and tenderness in post-surgical sites, promoting a smoother, quicker recovery for pets.
