Does pet insurance cover it?

Pet insurance covers Clavamox as part of the underlying infection claim at 70–90% after deductible. Skin infections, UTIs, dental infections, and wound infections are all covered. Even with insurance, filling tablets at a human pharmacy reduces your out-of-pocket.

Questions owners ask

How much does Clavamox cost for dogs?

Based on 67 real vet invoices, Clavamox (amoxicillin-clavulanate) at the vet costs between $45 and $80 per prescription. A typical 10–14 day course runs $35–$75 at the vet. The same drug as generic Augmentin at a human pharmacy: $10–$30 for the same course with a GoodRx coupon.

Can I fill Clavamox at a human pharmacy?

Tablets: YES — the human equivalent is Augmentin (amoxicillin-clavulanate). With a written vet prescription, fill at Costco, Walmart, or any pharmacy for $10–$30 with GoodRx vs $45–$80 at the vet. Liquid drops: NO — Clavamox drops are a veterinary-specific formulation that must come from a vet or pet pharmacy. For dogs that can swallow tablets, the human pharmacy route saves 50–70%.

Where is the cheapest place to buy Clavamox?

For tablets: human pharmacy with GoodRx is cheapest ($10–$30 for a course). Costco Pharmacy: $8–$20 (no membership needed). Chewy: $15–$40 for pet-labeled amoxicillin-clavulanate. At the vet: $45–$80. For liquid drops (small dogs/puppies): Chewy ($15–$35) or 1-800-PetMeds — not available at human pharmacies.

What is the difference between Clavamox tablets and liquid drops?

Tablets ($10–$30 at human pharmacy, $35–$75 at vet) are the same drug as human Augmentin. Liquid drops ($25–$60 at vet, $15–$35 on Chewy) are a vet-specific formulation designed for small dogs and puppies. The drops require refrigeration and expire 10 days after opening. Tablets are cheaper and have a longer shelf life — use them when possible.

How much does a full course of Clavamox cost?

A typical 10–14 day course costs: $10–$30 at a human pharmacy (tablets with GoodRx), $15–$40 on Chewy, $45–$80 at the vet. Add the exam fee ($50–$100) to diagnose the infection. Total visit + medication: $60–$175 at a human pharmacy, $85–$175+ buying from the vet. Clavamox is rarely prescribed long-term — it's a short-course antibiotic.

Does pet insurance cover Clavamox?

Yes — Clavamox is covered when prescribed for a covered infection (skin, UTI, dental, wound). It's included in the claim for the underlying condition at 70–90% after deductible. Since Clavamox is relatively inexpensive, the insurance benefit on this drug alone is modest — but the underlying condition visit (exam, diagnostics) is where the real savings are.
