SMZ break down and dosing

[SQUIRRELSAREME]

I have 6 little one who weight between 178 -202 who have very mushy poop,one is actually liquid with bubbles. Can some one break down a Smz 800/160 for me and give me the dose? Thank you

I also have different meds is SMZ is not the correct med for this .i have doxycycline 100 mg cap. And metronidazole 500 mg tabs

Late to bed now. Good night and good luck. You might PM Step and see if he can double check me. He's up late often and I think also has the book we all use for dosing.

Oh, and keep it in the fridge.

Subsequent doses starting tomorrow I think are cut in half after the loading dose, but I'll leave that to others.. Gotta go.

Sorry didn't mean to sound desperate .i have tried pumpkin with proabotics for two days now, and still have very mushy poo like I said one is very watery with bubbles thank for your help .

I took the dosing off the board. Farrelli is correct with the amount of water to add and the dose. However, with this drug, you dose the amount he said twice daily, you don't cut this one in half on subsequent days. We do that with Baytril, but not the SMZ-TMP.
I am sending you the page from the book so that you can see for the weight how much each little squirrel should get.
Dose according to their individual weights if possible.
Make sure that the squirrels are hydrated when using this or any sulfa drug.
Give probiotics 2 hours prior to 2 hours after administering this or any antibiotic.

Thank you farrelli!
