Hi guys,
We have a 7 mos old F6 SV. He has had runny stool issues on and off since we got him at 12 weeks. No other problems. 2 stool tests were negative and a round of metronidazole helped briefly. In the past 24 hrs he has gone to full on diarrhea, dripping everywhere and is confined to the bathroom. I took a very good stool sample ( stuck a pill bottle under his bottom and got it almost full) they found one oocyte in the sample. So he is on ponazuril for 4 days. First dose a couple of hours ago. I am watching him for dehydration but an wondering how long it will take for meds to get his diarrhea under control? Vet said 24 hrs. He's freaking out every time he leaks. Just wanted any advice available. Thanks!
