Thanks for any help you can offer!
Remember that Albon is an antibiotic, so the probiotics should not be given at the same time...otherwise, the probiotics and antibiotics may not be effective.

Probiotics And Antibiotics

So, make sure that you're giving the probiotics at least 3-4 hours AFTER the Albon.
What kind of probiotics did he send you home with?

Also, to answer your question, my yorkie had a severe case of coccidia when we first got him, and he was extremely sick and refused any food. We gave him Albon for a month or so, and he got better.
