Good evening all,
Has anyone had a good experience with any over the counter meds to help with pneumonia?
I came home from a three-week-long mission yesterday evening and my poor older girl Lil looked awful. I had my husband take her to the vet this morning and she has pneumonia. The vet put her on Baytril and albuterol, but I'm wondering if there's anything I can give her like Sudafed or guafenisin (sp.?) to assist with breaking up her congestion. I've looked through the respiratory meds section on the Rat Guide, but I'd like to hear a little more from experienced keepers before dosing her.
She is a little over 24 months old, and does not have other health issues that I'm aware of.
Thanks in advance!
