Help..Respitory infection

I need to know the names of antibiotics(for lack of a better word) the vets give the snakes for respitory infections. I believe one starts with a B, but I just can't think of it.

Thanks in advance,
Brett Kalinowski

Brett,

Baytril (sp?) but if your snake has a resp infection a vet would be better at determining which would be better. Roberts and Wendt animal hospital on 117th is where I would suggest. Dr. Wendt is one of the best around.

Brett,
Since it's the weekend and you may not be able to see a vet until Monday, there are a couple things you can do on your own.

Raise the temperature in the enclosure a few degrees. Assuming that you've been maintaining in the mid 80's to low 90's, try kicking it up on the warm side to about 94 degrees. Also, if you can raise the humidity a bit, it will help. This time of year with heaters running, it gets difficult to keep the humidity levels up.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Yes, Baytril is probably the ATB of choice. In the past I have had good results with Tylan too. It's like Aspirin, old but still good.

Regards
