Thank you for submitting your question regarding Frany. If you suspect that she has the parvovirus, then you need to seek veterinary care for her immediately. This disease can be fatal without proper treatment. While antibiotics can be a part of a treatment plan, there are other components as well that are necessary to increase chances of survival. Furthermore, the dose of your tablets is way too high given the weight in her profile. I hope this information helps.
