This sounds like a good idea, Richard. The average person who may not have the means to dilute the drug at home could ask his vet to dilute the dosage that way when it is dispensed and perhaps it would solve a lot of the problems associated with the Baytril injections.

Do you give Baytril daily when you use it? That is how is was first recommended by the manufacturer and the way it was used at the Bronx Zoo when it was being tested there in the early 1990's. Another advantage of the ceftazidime over Baytril is that it only needs to be given every three days (or every two days in a severe case). Hence, though it is costly, less may be needed in the long run due to the doses being given further apart.
