What dose did you use for what weight?
Naxcel?
SMZ How many cc per each day.
1 1/2 years ago I had a serious problem with some rescue horses that were here.
Threw creative drug trials along with my vet we got a handle on it. I'm
going over there today I'll send you some information as to what we did.
Run it by your vet. This was a 6 month ordeal, and no fun and lots of
worries. Felt like buying some stock options in the vet Hosp group?
What ever was going around this area was not affected by pennicillian. And
did not go away on its own...........
We also used tubes of probiotics (sp?)
This may be not endurency enough? I don't know at this point. If you want
I'll send it to you privetly. Let me know.....
