Took Crunchie and Elsa to the vets two weeks ago because of Elsa's flaky skin where the vet gave them this spot on treatment, and told me to treat them both again in two weeks. However I was not prepared for such a large amount to come out the tube and it looks like Elsa had most of the pipette to herself when they were supposed to have ten drops each! I'm now completely freaking out that I've over dosed her! Has this happened to anyone else?! If it helps this was the packaging:

Please wash her down before the xeno is absorbed and see an out-of-hours vet if there are problems during the evening/night, especially with bulging eyes. Otherwise, contact your regular tomorrow.

After nearly 24 hours there doesn't seem to be any problems and Elsa is eating and drinking and behaving as normal! Thank you for the advice to wash her straight away, she was a little confused what was going on but may have done the job! They're booked in at the vet's for two weeks time for their proper second treatment, and I am never taking a chance with a spot on treatment myself again! Absolutely worried myself sick :(
