Are animal antibiotics and human antibiotics the same?

Answer:
Some of them are the same medicines, but the dosage is VERY different for animals than for humans. Cats and dogs and other small pets cannot take the large doses of medicines that humans can take. Taking the same amount as humans take can actually kill some animals.
