Good probiotics & prebiotics?

mismatchbunnies

Warren Scout
Looking to give probiotics alongside a 10 day course of baytril. Can anyone recommend the best types? I’ve seen fibreplex is recommended in a lot of places as a probiotic. Also have had a look at Alvipro Plus as a prebiotic - is this safe for rabbits? Would a probiotic or a prebiotic be better to be given alongside an antibiotic course? I’ve heard probiotics can often not have much of an effect due to the acidity of the rabbit’s stomach meaning the benefits often don’t reach the gut. Is it worth getting either? One of my rabbits is stasis prone so this is the main reason for looking into them.

Without going into the endless and never agreed on ' do they or dont they work debate ' I give one of my Rabbits Pro C professional as he has a chronic condition which effects his GI tract. IME the product has definitely been of benefit.
