Antibiotics and then penicillin are different things. Plus that one you showed is for Cattle upper respiratory..I could be wrong, although here people use a slow release antibiotic

Penicillin is just one type of antibiotics. But it is an antibiotic.

I believe it prevents bacteria from building their cell walls. So when they multiply, they end up dying since having no cell wall=death.

Yes...Thankyou..Hmmm..Darn..I think she will need a stronger antibiotic that is slow release to fight the infection if it's in the bone..Phew, I got it out of my head..

I scratched my head on that one too, but it means Canada instead of California.

That’s what we are here for right? When one person can’t remember something, hopefully the others will help them out!

I hope the body has just encapsulated it. The body has some amazing abilities! But I would think yes, if it’s in the bone stronger antibiotics would be needed. But I don’t have specific experiences to pull from, thats just my opinion.

I only know because a flock of Cayuga I was to take in this Fall..One was put down because of severe infection in is foot that got eating at the bone in the foot...The other was put on a slow release antibiotic..That one healed.
