Hi does anyone know how long it takes for antibiotics to start working on the piggy?

He has an upper respiratory infection we think vets gave antibiotics Saturday but he isn't much better 😞
 
Antibiotics take several days before they have built up enough to start to work, So you are only just at the point of it that.
You should start to see improvement over the coming few days.
If s/he isn’t better by the end of the course then do return to your vet as sometimes they can need a longer course
