How long can u keep a cat on tylan powder for I.B.S. ? Is there a injection or tablet form I can use ? Is there any other meds ?
Hi and thank you for your post on Boop by Petco this afternoon! Tylan powder can be used in cats with IBD, but is not a long term solution for this problem. Tylosin can come in tablet, liquid suspension, or capsule form. IBD symptoms will reappear after stopping the Tylan administration. Prednisolone can help symptoms as well as another antibiotic called Metronidazole, but again, these drugs are not for long term usage. Changing the diet to a novel protein source that is highly digestible can really help IBD patients. Sometimes there is a concurrent food allergy causing the symptoms so it is worth exploring with your veterinarian if a food trial or food allergy screening test is worth doing. High fiber diets can also help as well. Most diets that can help with IBD are prescription diets that are available through your veterinarian. I hope this helps and thanks again for using Boop by Petco!

My dog was diagnosed with pancreatitis and small intestinal dysbiosis a couple weeks ago. He was put on low fat food and Tylan powder at that time. He is getting a massage this weekend and they use essential oils on the skin, inhalation, and through
I'm not aware of any essential oils that would interact with Tylan powder. Dogs can be sensitive to topical essential oils so you may want to be cautious with their use. I personally wonder what it is like for an animal with such a sensitive sense of smell to experience essential oils - this might be more fun for people than pets.

She has been on and off again having diarrhea. Took her the vet and they put her on meds. She's been on a strick chicken and rice diet. Diarrhea is yellowish runnie and you can see the rice. She's on tylan powder and probiotics.
If tylan is not effective in the next 4 days I would recommend to switch to metronidazole and give panacur (commercial name of the worming treatment) to make sure any kind of parasite and bacteria infections are covered. Please discuss all these options with your local vet depending on their suspicion and possible differential diagnosis.

My rabbit has white nasal discharge accompanied by a low pitch deep cracking noise when breathing. He still eats and drinks but seems lethargic. The rabbit is 4 months old and is male. I went to a vet and he prescribed tylosin and some vitamins. Told
No, Tylosin is definitely not the antibiotic for this condition, in fact it should not be used at all in rabbit and can cause a rabbit fatal diarrhea. the antibiotic your rabbit needs for this condition is Baytril (enrofloxacin) 10mg/kg twice a day for 3-6 weeks.
