Yes it is just as effective given orally
It will be over before you know it. I thought it would never end for us. I actually expected Pennie to die and the one day I took her in again she was on deaths door.
And then I got some help from a yorkie breeder who has helped tons of people with their little ones. I did everything she told me to and by the next day Pennie was obviously feeling better. We did liver juice and pedialite and some other things. Then we got the giardia diagnosis and got her on those meds and she is thriving at 5 months. Wow, I cannot believe she is already 5 months old! Last time I weighed her, a few weeks ago, she was 2.8 pounds so I am pretty sure she is 3 pounds by now.
