Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question. If the Albon is labeled as injectable, then that is how is it supposed to be used. There are oral suspensions of Albon you can get from your vet. Best of luck.

I gave my puppy 1.5mls of Aldon for 4 days instead of 1.5 mls the first day and .75 mls for 9 days what should I do.
Thank you for submitting your question regarding McKayla. I would give her the low dose starting today and contact her veterinarian tomorrow. They may refill the medication so that you have enough for the low dose for the 9 days. Albon is a very safe drug so you should not have to worry about toxicity. I hope this information helps!

Can I give injectable Ivermectin as oral treatment to dog for mange?
Hello. We do need to know if Jack has mange & what kind of mange it is. Is it sarcoptic or demodex mange? Once you know this, then the injectable ivermectin can be administered orally for treatment. Please work with your veterinarian to make sure you are treating the right condition with the right medication. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

My puppy is just over 10 weeks old. She is currently on Albon for coccidia. I have noticed moving tapeworm segments in her stool. What I'm wondering is, can she take the praziquantel (by Bayer Expert Care) while taking the Albon for the coccidia? I w
Yes, they can be taken together, but because Bayer Expert Care is available without a prescription, the strength of the praziquantal will not be a strong as found in Drontal (which can only be given by prescription from the vet), and you may not get as good results. I would recommend taking Josie into the vet for an exam to get Drontal, it is an extremely effective and safe deworming treatment.

Is it okay to give my ferret albon for diarrhea?
It is advised to have a veterinarian perform a decal exam to try to pinpoint the cause of diarrhea. Albion is a reasonable option given the presence of specific parasites. However, if the diarrhea is caused by bacterial overgrowth or different parasites, then you’d need another medication. So it’s always best to give any medication under the direction of a veterinarian.

I got my puppy last Saturday every since I got home home he has had the diarrhea he got his first shots this sat and the vet put him on alban for it he still has diarrhea 60% of the time how long will it take it to fully work?? Unfortunately vet did
If a fecal test was not performed, then one should definitely be done to see if there even is an intestinal parasite responsible for the diarrhea. There are many other intestinal parasites that can cause diarrhea and Albon does not treat them all. I would recommend having a fecal sample from Koda tested to see what the possible causes of the diarrhea. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

My puppy (8 weeks) has coccidia and a UTI. He was given a prescription of Albon, he weighs 5lbs, and it's a 5-day treatment. 2.5mL on day one and then 1.5mL once for the next four days. Will this treatment help with his UTI and Coccidia? Should I ma
Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. The albon is for treatment of coccidia and will not treat a UTI. Was the UTI confirmed? It is unusual to see such a young dog get a UTI. I would have the urine tested if it has not been tested already. An antibiotic such as clavamox would be used to treat the infection. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Hi one of our dog is sick and my father went to the vet earlier to have her checked. He bought the prescribe medicine the problem is we don't understand how to prepare the medicine. Please advise. I'll be sending the image of the front and back of th
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Unfortunately you didn't provide your dogs weight so we can not give you doses. I recommend calling your Vet when they re-open. In the US it is not legal to prescribe medications with out a label and the medications not reconstituted (made in to a liquid from the powder form). Are you in the US? Also in the US we do not prescribe Acetominophen ( https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/tylenol/ ). I recommend calling your Vet regarding that medication as we can't recommend giving it to dogs. I am sorry but if you want to re-post with Ringa's weight we can probably help with the Amoxicillin).

My mixed spitz is of 2 month 27 days and she was provided with 2 medicines but the time to give and the amount of doze was not given. Iam attaching the medicine photographs with this massage.
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! The best way to go about this is to then contact the veterinarian who prescribed these so that they can relay the dose they wanted to give as we are not able to prescribe without being able to see your pup in person. Best of luck!

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! Assuming this antibiotic was prescribed based on the culture, then it should be effective. This is a broad spectrum antibiotic which tends to work well for a lot of infections. Good luck and have a great day!
