Antibiotics

I just wondered, generally, how long it normally takes for antibiotics to start having an effect

Daisy has been on them since Monday evening for an infection and the discharge is still there - but I suppose it hasnt been 48 hours yet, and she needs to be on them 10 days, so I am probably hoping for miracles too soon

What type is she on???

With Baytril u normaly start to see a slight improvement after 72 hours

It's Baytril she's on - 0.05ml twice a day (so the usual 0.1ml split up)

Ok well she's still quite perky at night and is coming out at the same time and eating all her food - it's just the discharge is still around her bottom. wanted to know how long to give it for the discharge to hopefully clear up before I conside taking her back to vet if it doesnt

Thanks Sarah
