Shelf life of sulfatrim

[furryfriends (TEAS)]

She just feels so boney it’s scary how fast she’s losing but your story of Buttercup is encouraging. Did Buttercups appetite decrease? Ellen’s has

Yes, her appetite decreased. It took about 3 days of antibiotic and Metacam before she started to show a huge improvement x

What's actually been diagnosed? I have missed something somewhere. Is it a uti, nothing else

She’s being treated for either a bad cystitis flare or a uti

I would count today as day one. Last year, when Nigel was poorly, I used a bottle of Sulfatrim that had been opened, a few weeks previously for another piggy. He didn't make any progress whatsoever. Took him to see Simon and he said about prescribing Sulfatrim and I said I already have him on it, but it's not working. That's when he told me it deteriorates rapidly once opened. He prescribed a fresh bottle and Nigel improved very quickly.

Thank You. She’s really not well today so I’ll count today as day 1 then
