Here is another stupid question // you're probably sick of me, but

[bcr229]

If they act in snakes in a similar way they act in humans, I would assume one of the main reasons they are preferred is because injectables are stronger and act faster than the oral ones, am I right in making this assumption?

It's because snakes metabolize anything eaten very slowly. You want antibiotics to hit hard and fast to kill off the bad bacteria quickly.

The only time one of my snakes was prescribed oral antibiotics was specifically to target a digestive problem (bloating combined with a prolapse) and then it was administered via tube along with just a few cc's of a thin paste made with Carnivore Care and water.
