Baytril can take more time than other meds but it usually takes care of the infection. Dr. Boyd told me one time that he saw a snake that was so bad, he had to inject antibiotics directly into the lung.
One other thing. Keep an eye on mouth rot too. Sometimes RI will cause mouth rot.
I wouldn't think you'll see any change for at least 10 days, but probably longer. If the snake has it really bad, you may have to go with another 14 day treatment.
