    When I had a snake struggling to shake a bacterial RI the Vet had me up the dosing to every day for a week and then back to every other day, somewhat opposite of what you vet said to do.
    Mine did finally shake the RI after 3+ weeks of baytril shots.

    I can't understand the vet not demanding a culture unless the vet wasn't versed in getting cultures from a snake

    My Pastel, who I posted a thewad on last yeae took almost 3 months on baytril to kck his. First month was every three days and the last two were every other than he had two weeks of every day after that. Hes alive and healthy now bur constant medication really takes its toll. Ri's are a pain to kick..

    I was addibg my personal experience, not trying to contridact
