Another update. After two weeks on Clavamox 62.5 mg and Prednisone, because the regular vet who prescribed this was on holidays and because my cat still had creamy yellow discharge from the one nostril and increasing respiratory difficulties that needed a Dexamethasone injection to get it under control(which only lasted two days before the symptoms returned)the antibiotic was switched to Baytril 50mg.I tried to get something else but the vet insisted on this. I looked up Baytril and it has serious side effects if the dosage is at 5 mg especially in older cats, and the dosage the vet gave was 50 mg. Once a day for 10 days. I'm extremely concerned about this but don't what to suggest as an alternative. I would have to

suggest an alternative because the vet isn't suggesting anything else even though I asked and I don't know what to say. I don't really want my cat on Baytril. Would penicillin work?

Thanks for any info you could give. I've been bringing my cat back to the vet every two days.
