Hi,

Does anyone have any experience with using this drug in ferrets?

It is one of the options we are exploring for my ferret who has EGE.
She is currently on prednislone and we are looking for alternate
options. Imuran is another possibility but it can cause bone marrow
suppression, which does concern me. Entocort was suggested because of
good results seen in dogs and cats. However, my vet can't find anyone
who has used it in ferrets. Has anyone here - or would you know of
someone we can contact who has tried it in ferrets?

Thanks!

Tressie
