So sorry your little one had an amputation at this point in his life!
The Cipro is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections but it is always concerning to
medicate such tiny ones!
The vet just said to give the 3mgs every 48 hours? Was he not dosed according to his
weight?
I can dose him for you if you need, he is 8 grams?
Hold off giving any until we double check his dose!
