Hey so I tried to gove my beardie his injection for an URI and he ended up flipping out and bleeding a bit (bright red) bleeding has ceased externally, no obvious differences or pain to injection site, so i dont think he has internal, only half the injection got in and i don't know what to do. Can i ask the vet for an oral dose instead in the morning? I don't want to pay another $50 vet bill honestly, will he be okay with only half an injection?? .2 cc's for 7 days, 2 succesfull doses. I don't feel comfortable trying again
Edit: I've read baytril can be given orally, he also has a mouth infection he's been being treated for as well, is there a difference in between the oral and the injectable baytril or could I just take the needle off and give it to him that way?

Here is some info from Reptiles magazine written by famous herp vet Dr. Margaret Wissman describing why Baytril should only be injected once, then given orally. The article is dealing with a chameleon with an abscess on it's eye, just scroll down to the vet's answer concerning the Baytril injections.
