The use of enrofloxacin can produce crystals in urine. These crystals may show up on a laboratory test thus it is important to be aware of this side effect.

See retinal damage below regarding the recently described feline retinal problem associated with enrofloxacin at higher doses.

Yes Yorkieshadow, I have no idea why vets prescribe the medicines that they do to some patients...I really do not understand. It's almost as if they don't even bother to look up who shouldn't get it. They just write a prescription because it helps most dogs...Same with the meds that they prescribed for Miko after his first surgery...He almost died because of the prescriptions he was given. I told the vet, and they said that's probably not what it was, but you know what??? I took him off all the pain meds and nausea meds, and guess what?? He got better!!
Mickey's probably nauseous because the meds are making him so sick and affecting his kidneys and liver and all...
