Treatment & Preventative Meds / Re: Cephalexin reactions - Ella

Hi,
I'd have to check the anti-inflam bottle. In work just now. I can check later though.
Well, the vet said to stop the antibiotic. If she doesn't have an infection and the real cause of the sickness is post-vaccination illness, then the antibiotic isn't doing anything anyhow.
Plus, she said it is possible for a dog to react to any antibiotic in all kinds of ways, irritated skin included (though mostly diarrhoea and vomiting). So she has two/three more doses of anti-inflammatory left and I will know then if she reacts after a dose.
I was just back with her at lunchtime (live in the UK) and she was in better form.
Will post again over the weekend with any updates.
Thanks
Adrian
