My goose is not feeling well and I lost her mate last week. How do I give her pennicilin. It is almost impossible to see her skin. She is a Sebastopol.
This is something for the vet, not for you to experiment with. if the cat is so sick they need antibiotics they need to see a vet. Don't ever inject anything unless you got training by a vet to do so.
Penicillin is normally an IM (intra muscular) injection. A SQ/Sub Q (beneath the skin) injection would probably not do any appreciable harm but because of the thickness of the medication the drug would not reach therapeutic levels.
A dose of penicillin, if you give them the long lasting, inject it under the skin as apposed to in the muscle. Long lasting is better as the animal will slowly absorb the medicine.
You should give a penicillin shot in the fat under the skin, not IM or in the muscle. Due to possible complications resulting from shots in dogs, I would reccomend injecting it into the fat under the skin in the leg. Grab the skin/fur on the hip, pull it away from the body a little bit (don't hurt the dog) and inject it underneath the skin between the skin and muscle. Be sure all air has been expelled from the needle, and be ready to apply some pressure to the plunger on the needle. Penicillin is very thick and may require some force to inject thru the needle.
Instead of injecting the whole med. only inject 0.8 ml This is something very common among antibiotics orders. For the next time all you have to do is to divide the order by the amout in the vial and multiply by the # of ml that the vial has.
This is very good question. No preservatives were used to preserve the penicillin in past or present also. Penicillin is produced by fungus. So in olden times you have had the impurities in the form of fungal proteins, which caused hives, specially after injections of the penicillin. Even the most deadly reaction may be caused by the fungal proteins, which have been present, in traces, in the inject-able preparations, probably.
No; there is no penicillin in ibuprofen.
