Luvachicken Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 When my rabbit was given Baytril, after a few days the medicine in the container had little teeny strands in. I told the receptionist this when my rabbit had to go back. She said they'd look into it. Now Matilda is on Baytril too and the same thing is happening. I was given 2 brand new syringes. I'm pretty certain the strands weren't there in the first place but now they are. The Baytril for Matilda is in a slightly different container - it's a clear yellow one instead of just a clear one. Has anyone else noticed this ? Does anyone know what the strands are ? Maybe specks of plastic break off between the lid ( a childproof one) and the container ? Does the Baytril "eat" into the plastic container ? Are the strands safe ? I guess they must be because my rabbit is fine. Any answers would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chortle Chook Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I think that it could be the Baytril coagulating. I have noticed the same thing, but it did not seem to make any difference to either my chooks or my pet rats (when I had them). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 I'm glad someone else has noticed this too. I was beginning to think somehow I'd contaminated the medicine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammiboo Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 no dont worry its not "eating" the plastic. When i worked at a bird sanctaury we had baytril and the bottles they come in are plastic too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
