Antibotics

Hi all,

How long does it take for antibiotics to kick in?

My vet has tried Alfie on another type of antibiotic (Septrin) for his snotty nostral and i swear that after just two doses he has hardly sneezed!

Is it all in my mind or does it kick in quickly?

Thanks

Bonnie
 
Mr Thumps my Giant French had Septrin in December and it cleared his runny nose. Unfortunately I lost him in Jan to something else.

I remember reading about Mr Thumps :cry:

Well Alfir has been on Marbocyl and Baytrol which didn't do a thing, so hoping Septrin will be more effective. It seems to be doing something thankfully![/quote]
 
Oral Septrin should start to show clinical signs of improvement within 48-72 hrs. Glad Alfie appears to be improving!! Jane x
 
Its defo working, alfie only sneezed once last night, usually i can see snot on his right nostral when i give him brekkie but there was nothing and it was dry :)

I hope that when he comes off the antibiotocs it wont come back :(

he loved the Septrin too, was trying to eat the syringe and Holly was trying to have some too!
