Can I break down a 250mg pill of Metronidazole for dosing a 2 to 3# puppy if they are to have liquid 12mg per 2# pup? I ask because I had a prescription from my vet and the cost was $44 for a 10 day supply, 40mg bottle, to dose 2 puppies. This was "compounded" by the only pharmacy in town that does this. I have other puppies that need treatment also, the littermates to these two. They are small breeds, Maltese and Chihuahua. Thank you so much!
After using metronidazole 400mg×2 tablets in 75 litre aquarium tank, my two parrot fish has thread like some seeing near gills and genital area ? How to treat them ?
My dog has coccidia but was given metronidazole. Upon researching I found out that it is for Gardia. Will metronidazole still be effective for treating coccidia? There is no Albon available in out country. Also my dog keeps eating her poop so she just gets reinfected again and again
How to use metronidazole for various diseases of blood parrot fish ?
Hello, my dog was not feeling good about 3 days ago. Had to do with his old freeze dried/raw food I believe. Doctor prescribed him metronidazole. He looks fine now. And they tested his stool for a couple of things and all was negative. Everytime I give him the meds, he is out of it for a few hours and just wants to sit in my lap. Dose is 50 mg / pill, 2 per 12 hours. As everything is negative, can I stop giving him this? I am changing his food as well. Thank you
Hello, My puppy is infected with various intestinal parasites. She is only 4 weeks old. We took her to the vet and she got prescribed Metronidazole pills. We are supposed to give her 25mg (half a pill) every 12 hours. But, when we did this, she began to experience terrible neurological side effects like dizziness, stiffness, unresponsiveness, and not eating or sleeping. I decided to cut that dosage in half, giving her 12.5mg every 6 hours. Will the medication still be effective given this way?
Dehydration, diarrhea. No worms found, bacteria infection. Metronidazole prescribed, broad spectrum wormer.. Dog won't eat dry food wetted down but does eat canned. Dr said this drug can cause diarrhea but he already had it so you may not see improvement yet.. Continue meds. This drug can cause unbalance and grogginess. She wasn't teal thrilled he threw up yesterday but that's also a possible side effect. Absolutely no pepto but a pepcid is OK..is any of this true?
My cat (6.8 kg) has diarrhea, and the vet prescribed 1/2 Flagyl 250 every 12h (no specific diagnostic was made). It's been very hard to follow this protocol because the cat is very stubborn when taking pills (spits them and panics) and the only person in the house who can do it is me. However, due to my work shifts, I can only give him one of the doses. I read online that this dosage (1/2 pill) can be given just once daily and it's still effective for GI upset, but wanted to confirm this.Thanks!
We are giving our 12 week old kitten metronidazole 25 mg every 12 hours because he more than often has had bright red blood in his stool. The vet prescribed metronidazole saying that it could be parasites. He hasn't had a bowel movement in 48 hours. Does the drug cause constipation, should we stop the meds? Is 48 hours without a bowel movement bad? He is eating very well and his activity level is normal as well. He used to have regular bowel movement (1-2 times a day). Thank you.
My cat has had some blood in her stools lately and the stools have been softer than usual. I brought her to a vet and her tests came back clear but the vet prescribed metronidazole. Is this the appropriate medication? On the Web I saw that it can have severe side effects
Maxine started getting head tremors this morning. This started after our vert prescribed Metronidazole. This has only happened one other time when she was prescribed Gabapentin. We stopped the Gabapentin, the tremors went away. I was going to do the same with the Metronidazole, is that okay to do? He prescribed it because had a little bit of yeast in her anus.
I gave my cat half a tablet of 250 mg metronidazole approximately 14 hours ago and when I got home, she was walking with her head down and stumbling a little bit. This was prescribed by a vet to help control IBS. She did eat her dinner and is alert. Is it ok to wait until the morning to contact my vet?
