[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 583102, member: 4353"] NEVER vaccinate a sick animal, you won't get a strong immune response. Any vaccine given the same time as an antibiotic is a waste of money. in laymen' terms the antibiotic's job is to kill the bacteria, the vaccine's job is to supply the bacteria to get an immune response. Given at the same time the antibiotic negate the effect you want from the vaccine. It sounds like pneumonia, but the fact that she has had laboured breathing for such a long time makes me wonder about another cause. I usually don't wait and see when I have one coughing, I hit them hard with antibiotics, and not LA200 unless in an emergency and I have nothing else. All that said, in my climate I rarely see more than one case of pneumonia every 3 years so I'm far from an expert on the treatment of pneumonia, I would normally use Cobactan as it has a long shelf life after opening.
