To your friend's health? Do you mean to you rat's health?

The symptoms may be coming and going because her immune system is getting rid if them periodically. It's like when we humans have a cold or the flu and we feel better for some periods of the day than others.

yes, he is my rat but also que is my friend :oops:

thanks for the info, i bought the med. :)

Just making sure, my rats are also my friends :D Batryl is an antibiotic commonly used here for rats, so at the levels suggested in Rat Guide, it should be safe. If you are crushing the pills and mixing them with water and/or syrup (some people use Strawberry Quik to flavour meds - it's a syrup ised for flavouring milk, I know they sell it everywhere in Argentina so it should be available in Brazil but perhaps under a different name) you need to keep it in the fridge and use it within a short period of time (I would say 2 weeks max, but I'm not sure because I have never done it before). You should also look into a probiotic to avoid upset stomachs.
 
Also, if they will take it just mixed up in syrup, give it out of the syringe, if not, mix it up in some foods they like.

Good luck with your rat :)

Well, i bought baytril and took my rat weight, its 210 grams, today i saw he is making a litle noise, but he is breathing fine and i dont see he is sneezes, i think i will only give baytrix if the noises starts again.

thanks for the help people.
