Dear Kym: About 5-10% of ferrets on any form of amoxicillin will experience partial or total lack of appetite. In such cases, a switch to Baytril usually resolves the situtation. If nausea is still there, then I would start looking at other possibilities, such as an ulcer, blockage, etc.

with kindest regards,
