Subject: concerned about baytril

I had my vet prescribe baytril for Newton, on the off chance
that her symptoms might be infectious. Anyway, she takes it
VERY badly!! In fact, I believe that it is hurting her.
Thinking that it might dilute a bad taste I mixed her pred and
baytril in the same seringe and was shocked at her reaction.
She clawed at me like she never has in her 8 years, she
squawked and gagged and when I released her she ran away
digging at her mouth squawking and gagging more. It's as if it
burned her throat terribly.

Is this unusual? She's getting .14 ml 2x/day and if it's
going to be like this she's not going to be getting it much
longer!
