Blossom was prescribed Baytril (due to gram negative bacteria) and Clavamox for her infected uterus along with galiprant. Would calcium interfere with absorption of these drugs? I also am giving her Proviable probiotic 4 hours after eating along with goat milk, and don't know if there is a better probiotic. I have not been putting additional supplements in her food because I want her to eat it. I was giving her adrenal support, fish oil, E, B vitamins etc... but I don't want her to be rejecting the food because it smells off. I am putting in broccoli sprouts and dandelion. I am also giving her denamarin for her liver which seems to work, since her enzymes came down in the past 60 days.
I mention gram negative bacteria above. It reminded me that I read somewhere that the blood/infection coming from the vagina may not be the same infection as the blood in the uterus. Is this true? I also wonder---I gave her a bath outside with the hose about a week before this happened. Could there have been bacteria in the water--it is not filtered outside. This is the first bath she let me give her in a year, but she tolerated it nicely, especially since she did not like rain when I got her. This is well water. Maybe I should have been routinely cleaning her vulva to keep it cleaner. When the infection set in I used a weak solution of povidone iodine to clean her.
