Is it safe to spay or neuter my puppy while treating coccidia?

Question

Can a puppy get sterilized while being treated for coccidia? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 1 month and 30 days old | 10 lbs

Kevin Sanada, DVM · Accepted Answer

We usually prefer to wait until they are perfectly healthy to do elective procedures like this, but it can be done. Coccidia has varying degrees of severity. Depending on how debilitating the current disease is and the need for sterilization will determine whether it can/should be done. Most cases should wait until they are healthy though. I hope that helps and all is well with Tank.
