I don't understand why vets aren't up to date on treatments for ferrets.
It's not like this info just came out.
Please, if anyone goes to a vet that they later find out is using a less
gentle or outdated treatment, print out the newer treatment info and
either take it to them or mail it. Our vet tries to stay current on
treatments for all animals he sees and I would expect no less from him.
Afterall, being current on treatment information not only helps the
little ones in my care, but all of his ferret patients.
**Although my preferred ulcer protocol includes biaxin rather than Flagyl,
there are times (mostly due to financial constraints) when an owner has chosen
to use Flagyl instead. There are times when I use Pepto rather than Carafate
for one reason or another. Sometimes a vet using an older treatment is doing
so for many reasons, not because they are not aware of the newer options.
But I agree that is is a good idea to make sure of those reasons.**
