Ok, just to clarify, your vet put Teddy on steroids for bacteria? I am hoping you meant to type antibiotics. Steroids supress the immune system which will cause the bacteria to really flourish.
Was he vaccinated on this visit? With the steroids?



Hi!


He was not vaccinated with steroids.


He was prescribed SUROLAN


Surolan Drops (Canada) for Animal Use - Drugs.com


The insert of the package describes it as a cortisteroid.
