My daughter took one of the babies to the vet today. The vet won't be back in the office until Friday so I can't call her and find out what I need to know to start Wolfie on his meds.
He was prescribed:
Dexamethasone
4-8mg/kg
once every other day for 3 days. IM
I know she meant she wants him to have a total of 3 injections but I don't know anything about mg/kg.
I need to have that broken down in cc's for me.
I sure hope someone can help me.
Thank you for your time
Lois
