Ronidazole for 5lb hen?

[finnleywren]

Hello backyard community. I’m wondering if anyone here has heard of a Ronidazole suspension which can be purchased online? And what the dosing might be for a 5lb hen. She is being treated with metronidazole for canker and it is not working. I’m seeing powder and tablets online but I’m not seeing suspension. She is under an avian vet’s care. I’m hoping to find a cheaper alternative online. Many thanks in advance.

I've only see Ronidazole in powder or tablet form. Dosing is on the packaging. You may find the info below helpful too.

Thank you. I appreciate the info. I did find some compounding pharmacies out of state that do a suspension but apparently there is a law that doesn't allow them to mail that particular drug to California, where I live. Very annoying. I'm still looking for a company in California.

Oh dear, being in CA can be a challenge.

I'm not sure if @casportpony may be able to point you in the right direction or not.
