Blue had ec, vet only gave me enough to panacur the others for 9days, I read they should have it for 28days?
Honey heads slightly tilting, shes got a **** immune system and liver problems too.
Should I of had more panacur for them? :cry:
There 9days are over and really panicing now
 
I think Honey needs to see a vet ASAP.

I would try not to panic about the Panacur because it depends what you read and where as to whether or not it is of any use at all in a bunny that is an EC carrier, but if you want to carry on and do the full 28 days then you won't lose anything.

Also, I didn't know about you losing Blue. I'm really sorry :(

Loads of vibes for Honey and a 28 day course needs to be done for all buns. You can get the 10% stuff from Vet UK.
 
I know I always say this but I know not all the vets mention this, don't forget the bleach cleaning on days 21 and 28 while you are Panacuring.
 
yes you need a 28day course for treating ec the 9 days is only to treat worms. or as a worm preventative, bleach clean everything especially places where they wee as spores are transmitted through the wee most people say to bleach at day 1 21 and 28 the reasons being day one so everything is clean as you dont know how long the spores have been shedding (and it can be for months or a year or more or just days) and then they suggest 28 and 21 days, your buns should also be on antiinflammatrys such as metacam (for affected bunny) and if a middle ear infection has not been ruled out antibiotics in addition pm me if you like i have an ec bun who never got head tilt but has siezures and back leg partial paralysis and incontinance.
