Most vets only treat coccidiosis for 7-10 days. You always will have to go back for another 10 day possible 3 times. It really takes 21 days straight to get rid of in. The stress of a new hpme is enough to bring it on. Then w/the diareah it is hard to let everything be normal because you cant get coccidia all over the house. When my vet says coccidia & trys to give me a 10 day I just say I need 21 days of liquid albon 5%. I actually just order my own on line you can find it in yahoo shopping. If I know Tilula might get stressed - long trip, fireworks, vet-I start her on it 3 days before & continue 3 days after. Instead of paying the vet 70-100 3 times because he doesnt give me enough so that I will $$
Its 9.99 for a 2oz bottle & that should take care of it, 21 days everyday. Hope this helps. I get so aggervated w/the vets about coccidia. It is so hard on the pup & the owner plus all other pets can be effected. They told me adults couldnt but I had a 6 yr old very relaxed retriever & she did to. I quickly found where to buy it on my own after spending about 600 & still having the problem. This is what I found that helped me

except he recommends the 12.5% which tastes horrible. For these little ones Albon 5% is best they love taking it. Hope your baby is better.
