Clavamox is anti biotic I just found out. NO wonder It is not bringing her fever down. When I questioned him about this he said oh bring her in bring her in again but for what ? Just to make more money!
PLease help me she is my best friend ! What should I do? How can I bring down her fever?? |
The metronidazole is what is used to treat the giardia. I'm not sure why the vet is giving the clavamox but perhaps to kill any e coli or staph that might be present. Here is some good information on giardia:
Giardia in Dogs | VCA Animal Hospitals
Giardia is sometimes hard to get rid of and it may require her to be on the metronidazole longer. You also need to figure out how she contacted the giardia so you can get rid of the source.
I pray she starts feeling better soon.
