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.

Hi from the UK to Amsterdam :wave:
Propalin isn't licensed for use in Rabbits, so the prescribing vet will need to sort this out in your particular case.
However, Mark Rowland at Trinity Vets has prescribed it for Rabbits. Perhaps your Vet could give him a call for a bit of advice ?
Trinity Vets are in Maidstone, Kent, UK

Thanks! I've sent the details to my vet. Not sure if he wants to call abroad though...
Was hoping someone would know the dosage.
Thanks again UK
I can find the bottle I used and give you the dosage I used privately, but I am reluctant as it's an off label medication.
If your vet doesn't want to call abroad - perhaps he/she can email Mark?
If your own vet is unsure, then I don't think he/she would want to prescribe something on the basis of a dosage given by an unknown person via a rabbit forum in any case (no offence to Mighty Max intended when I say that) so I'm sure there shouldn't be an issue with them contacting a vet here in the UK to discuss.
