  • Please Note - Medical Advice

    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.

Baytril ..... How long does it last?

Oral or injectable ?

If oral then if dispensed from the original bottle into another bottle no more than a couple of weeks really, especially if a syringe has been put into it repeatedly to draw up doses
 
From memory, I think the data sheet states 28 days from when the seal is broken. I've used it for longer than this however, but take care to ensure to ensure it isn't contaminated by non-sterile sharps and I usually draw a full course of treatment into one syringe to minimise the number of times the rubber bung seal is breached.
