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.

New Kit
My rabbit has been prescribed 10ml doxycycline until asked to stop
He requires 0.08ml 1x a day but it says to dilute before giving

Any idea on dilution ratio? Exotic vets isn't open again until Tuesday and there is nothing on the label

Thanks so much in advance if anyone xan help me!
 
Hello there, I'm no expert, but would think that as long as your bunny gets his prescribed dose, the perhaps the dilution is your preference - maybe half & half? Hopefully someone will be along with some help.

I think 1ml as it was quite sticky like jelly so moving forward 1ml should be okay. I just played it by ear and did 0.8ml but I think 1ml would've been easier to dilute thank you!
