Good idea. And, if you're not experienced with
calculating drug dosages, ALWAYS get someone else
to double-check your calculations, like Debi did.
I always do. If I can't reach a fellow rehabber,
I will call my vet to get them to confirm my
dosage. I keep drugs like Amoxicillin (powder) at
home (and just mix the amount I will need) but
always get my dosage confirmed. I also keep a
copy of all of my calculations in my wildlife
notebooks. Sometimes I get lucky and have
already figured it out!
