Subject: Re: [Ferret-Health-list] concerned about baytril

Hi Jen,
The 3.6 would be a 65 mg/dl value. That is low enough
to start on Pediapred. If it is actually lymphoma then pediapred
would help to reduce the size of the lymph nodes, etc, and
it would help perk up the ferret. I understand that do to her age
you do not want to do surgery to remove a lymph node or to
biopsy the spleen and check the pancreas, etc. Thus I would
start her on Pediapred twice a day and see how she does.
Hope that helps,
Jerry Murray, DVM
