Well, there is the Flagyl (Metronidazole) that is also used for treating coccidia....effective against anerobic bacteria and parasites as well....is she getting Albon too, for the diarrhea? Once her gut gets "right" and is not violently (as in diarrhea) evacuating everything that passes into it, and the flora is re-established in a calm gut, the diarrhea will stop, the bloody stools will stop, and her gut will establish a norm and she will start having normal stools....usually takes about 2 weeks to get it right....you have the bloody diarrhea part successfully treated, give the gut time to re-establish a balance in flora, and the normal bowel movements will resume. Benebac was also suggested as a probiotic to help establish a calm, balanced gut....is she getting that?
