Have you researched the Tobramycin ? It is up to you but I would not be using that on my dog. The Vet put mine on the Clorpheniramine at the end & I added the Ester-C. I used them both for about a month then took him off the antihistamine. I was never able to put any meds in his nose as it was totally blocked with boogs & swelling so everything was by mouth. After the first month or 2 trying diff antibiotic he was put on Batryl after biopsy revealed that the other antibiotics were not rite for the specific bacteria he had developed and that was when he started clearing some of that ugly stuff out, he was also on Mucinex. I found that the antihistamine only made it thicker so it could not come out. When I took him to WSU they told me to not put anything up his nose as the vac caused a reaction & irritation & was trying to heel itself & when you put something in the nose it tries harder to heal itself causing more irritation. I believe they were rite because after the last antibiotic & mucinex cleared out the infection & boogs he took the Clortabs for about a year then I added the Ester-C and that's when he really started to improve. As vit is for immune system & it is an immune response to the vac.
Well, my feeling is that the meds in the nose are causing more of a problem but that's just my opinion and every dog is diff. Maybe the labs will shed more light on the problem. |
