So, I am about to ask a really dumb question so prepare yourself....

Where is the best place to buy Panacur and what kind (tablet, granules or paste)? My second youngest little girl (3-4 weeks old) came in underweight and is eating well (solid poops too) but she has a slightly bloated tummy. I have treated her with SMZ for almost a week and nothing has changed. She eats very well and is very active. I basically just want to cover all of my bases to make sure she doesn't have an intestinal parasite. I will probably worm my entire bunch prior to release to give them the best chances once they are wilds. :)

I have the Wild Baby Mammals book and can figure out the proper dose for her size (she was 44g at last weight check). I just want to know what the best type of Panacur is. :D

Thanks in advance. I feel like I need to start up my own mini pharmacy with the amount of drugs I am having to keep on hand this season! :grin3

I purchased mine from Amazon and got the granules - here is the link -

I think I have the dosing chart somewhere if no one chimes in with it. I didn't have any issues with using it on any of my squee.

Thanks for the link! :) And you just dissolve it in water or suspension fluid?

You can use either - but if you have flavored suspension, that might be more pleasant to the taste.:tilt
I have used both.

Perfect. I have a bunch of the flavored suspension for Pixie's Phenobarbitral :) how long does it last once mixed?

I'm pretty sure I used mine for both dosings once mixed which are two weeks apart - so at least three weeks, maybe longer. When Dr.E sent me some for Lenny in suspension, I had instructions to dose for a total span of six weeks, 3 times every two weeks, so I'd say at least that long. I would suggest keeping it refrigerated just to be on the safe side.
