My dog has coughed with phlegm, sneezed, had a fever, and yellow dried nasal discharge for two weeks—X-ray shows pneumonia. What now?
With pneumonia, oral meds are poorly absorbed—better to go to the hospital for IV, injections, and nebulization. Puppies need infectious disease screening (distemper can cause pneumonia, needing interferon/monoclonal antibodies). Bacterial pneumonia: do a sensitivity test, then use amoxicillin, cefotaxime, doxycycline by weight. Poor appetite: glucose-saline IV. Lots of phlegm: aminophylline to open airways.
What medication is used to treat a dog’s periodontitis?
Common medications for treating a dog's periodontitis include anti-inflammatory and oral-care products, such as amoxicillin-clavulanate and oral disinfectants. First, check the dog's teeth to see if there is plaque or tartar; if plaque and tartar are excessive, it is recommended to clean the teeth first and then use medication, feeding the dog easily chewable and digestible food during treatment. Regular teeth cleaning and oral care are important measures to prevent periodontitis in dogs, so the owner should keep the dog's mouth clean and healthy.
What medicine treats leopard tortoise pneumonia?
Leopard tortoise pneumonia usually needs antibiotics. Isolate it, raise temperature above 30°C, keep ventilated; soak daily in water with gentamicin. If it stops eating, add glucose to the bath for strength. More sun boosts immunity. If no improvement, dose gentamicin or amoxicillin by mouth, controlling amount and frequency.
My cat has feline rhinotracheitis, fleas and yellow fur—what should I do?
The main issue is rhinotracheitis, a contagious viral respiratory disease needing PCR (360-400 yuan); treatment with doxycycline, famciclovir, amoxicillin-clavulanate and lysine costs about 2000 yuan, more if IV needed. Fleas can be treated with fipronil-based prevention plus hygiene; yellow fur is from poor grooming due to illness—wipe clean and add salmon oil and lecithin.
What happens if a Teddy’s gums are red and swollen?
Red, swollen gums in a Teddy are usually a symptom of oral disease; without timely treatment it leads to bad breath, drooling, poor appetite, and in severe cases gingivitis, periodontitis, gum recession, and loose teeth. See a vet promptly; if not possible, give metronidazole or amoxicillin-class anti-inflammatory medication and a pet oral spray for pain. Brush regularly and provide chew toys.
Is my cat catching a cold?
From the photo the cat has a runny nose and tearing, suggesting an upper respiratory infection, bronchitis, or feline rhinotracheitis. Typical signs are sneezing, coughing, and rapid breathing; causes include chills, poor husbandry, or herpesvirus. Bacterial cases use amoxicillin-clavulanate plus warmth.
What medication should a female Teddy with urethritis take?
Treatment uses anti-inflammatory/antibacterial and diuretic drugs; mild cases use amoxicillin-clavulanate or ofloxacin. If much discharge or frequent urination, rinse the urethra daily with 2-3% boric acid. Keep the bed clean and disinfected.
My dog suddenly stopped eating, is listless, and the whites of its eyes are a bit red. There is no veterinary hospital nearby—is there any medication I can give?
Not eating, low spirits and red eyes may indicate fever; take its temperature (adult rectal 37.5-39.2°C, puppy 38.5-39.5°C). If over 39.5°C it is a fever—cool with diluted alcohol on paw pads, belly and ears. If unvaccinated it may be distemper; test with a strip and use monoclonal antibody, interferon and serum plus amoxicillin-clavulanate and nerve-support vitamins.
My cat has loose stools; after defecating its rear swells slightly with watery discharge, but it is alert yet has reduced appetite
Loose stools with a swollen rear may stem from gastroenteritis, parasites or food allergy; have a vet diagnose the cause. If a visit is hard, clean the area with saline-soaked gauze. For ongoing diarrhea, give pet anti-diarrheal and anti-inflammatory medication, and apply ointment to the swollen anus avoiding licking.
My dog is weak in all limbs and listless after diarrhea—what should I do?
Diarrhea followed by limb weakness and low spirits may indicate mild dehydration; give rice porridge or warm sugar-salt water for fluids and electrolytes. Try pet anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrheal meds. If no improvement in half a day to a day, or diarrhea returns, see a vet to rule out parasites or distemper/parvo/coronavirus.
