I don't know anyone who has extras and most Vet offices only seem to treat dogs and cats not "exotic pets". Please help I need Cito or Baytril ASAP before I loose my little man
I have Amoxicillin but I read it's dangerous for them and can cause intestinal tract issues which can lead to deadly diarrhea.
All ab's could possibly cause "intestinal tract issues" aka diarrhea.
Amoxicillin is not the preferred ab but it can work and if that's all
you have what is more dangerous then using it is not using it!
Without treating with an antibiotic, aspiration pneumonia will kill, period!
