I don't have any experience on the Baytril /Bactrim thing. My point was Bactrim IS prescribed to treat URI in bearded dragons. I don't know why this particular vet decided to go with this particular drug vs. Baytril. Maybe the vet will change the prescription. I figured out the drug calc and it looks like the dragon would be getting 50mg/kg which is in the recommended range based on the pediatric concentrationwhich, is what is used for reptiles.
My son, 7, took the Bactrim about a month ago for strep throat. He has allergies to PCN and cephalosporins. He had already finished a Z -Pack 3 months ago for strep so the same med was not used again. Bactrim is still widely prescribed for kids with allergies to other meds. Quinolones are really avoided in kids.
Anyway, I was just trying to help. Hope your dragon gets better soon.
