Is it okay to give baby ducks a small amount of medicated feed?

[BantammChick]

Hi everyone,
I'm raising baby ducks and chickens right now, and I'm running kinda low on unmedicated starter to feed the ducks. I have a lot of the medicated, so would it be okay to feed the ducks a little until I can get some more feed for them? It'll only be a couple days, and I have some unmedicated left I can mix with it. I've heard it's not good for them but I don't know how true that is.
Any help appreciated.

Oh thanks! My medicated feed says 'only active drug ingredient amprolium', so it sounds like I'm good to go!

If you can, add some nutritional or brewers yeast to it since it doesn't have enough niacin, although since it's just for a few days it shouldn't be that big a deal.
