    Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

    We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.

    Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

I'm just ordering some stuff online from vetuk for the first time - I normally get all my stuff from the vets - couldn't believe the mark up until I saw Jane's link to vetuk! :roll:

(1) Is Fibreplex for rabbits and small rodents the same as the Fibreplex for just rabbits? I've only ever had the latter from the vets. :?

(2) Is this the Avipro you all use?

I've only ever used fibreplex but fancied some of this in my emergency med cupboard... what is the dose for buns? :?

Sorry for the obvious silly questions! :oops::roll:
I'm getting some panacur 10% liquid too. My two have only ever had the 9 day pointless preventative... both well enough and no hols planned etc so we're going to do the 28 days I keep advising everyone else! :oops: :wave:
 
Fibreplex for rabbits is the one you need. Yes that's the Avipro I use. I also use the biolapis which is good but a bit more expensive.
