    Default HELP! 4 week old Squirrel has pneumonia, can I give her clavacillin????

    So i was raising 4 squirrels. One died yesterday & two died today. The only thing I can get my hands on right now is a clavacillin 375mg tablet. Can she have some?

    You need to post the weight of the squirrel for proper dosing instructions. Yes, clavacillin is a very good medicine for Aspiration Pneumonia...
