I have a squirrel 6 weeks old who had aspirative pneumonia. She has been on clavamox BID. She has received 11 doses. Almost 6 days. She is not showing any more signs of pneumonia. Her energy level is fantastic and there is no audible clicking heard when she breaths. I am wondering if it is safe to stop the antibiotics now? Thanks!

You need to stay on the Clavamox for a full 14 doses. That is equal to 7 days of 2 doses per day. You are almost there!!! A few more doses!!!!:Love_Icon
