  Bunny is on Baytril for 14 days (0.6 x2 per day). Any ideas?

  It’s always a good idea to give a rabbit a probiotic when they are taking an antibiotic. Bene-Bac is one of the most widely used probiotics. I don’t know if it’s sold over the counter in pet supply stores. I have always gotten it from my vet.

  There is debate on whether probiotics like benebac have actual probiotic benefits for rabbits, but generally if you make sure your rabbit eats hay, it will help maintain the gut biome.
