Subject: [ferrethealth] buprenex and amoxy - post op question
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

Fang had left adrenal surgery this past Tuesday and I started some
Amoxy (1cc after checking with my vet)because his incision has been
intermitently weeping clear, odorless fluid and he keeps licking the
stitches and they look irritated. Fang is drinking fine but doesn't
want kibble or to eat the soft moist food (unless hand fed - yes, I'm
well trained) but readily eats chicken babyfood on his own. I have
also started him on Carafate (.5 TID-QID) to help with the eating but
he isn't grinding, laying flat or anything that indicates to me that
he's in a lot of pain or nauseous. I forgot to ask the vet but I
wondered if a little Buprenex(.05)might help him. I also wanted to
make sure it was okay to use the Buprenex that the vet had given us
along with the other meds? Thank you.

Trish
