If your rabbit is sick, and/or you think she has a cold, bring her to a vet who has specific knowledge and experience about rabbits. Your rabbit's cold will not go away on its own, and if left untreated your rabbit will die from it. Treating for symptoms alone will not get rid of the problem.
Do not give your rabbit any medications made for humans (including babies), cats, or dogs, unless recommeneded by the vet. By far, most of these medications are toxic for rabbits. Rabbits have unique medical requirements and only certain medications are okay for them. This is why you must find a vet that knows about rabbits, not just cats/dogs.
Before you give your rabbit anything to treat her cold ("snuffles," respiratory illness), you should make sure she really does have a cold! Symptoms that look like a cold (sneezing, mucous running from the nose or eyes) can actually point to some other problem -- for instance, often they're caused by dental disease, or a tumour, or a foreign body (like a piece of hay stuck in the nasal passages). If your rabbit does have one of these other problems, treating her for a cold won't solve the problem and the rabbit will only get worse. Even if she really does have a cold, your rabbit must be tested to find out which bacteria or virus is causing the problem, because different medications work against different infections.
