Is it possible to give a cat Linex for diarrhea?


5837Pavel

Digestive problems, diarrhea, constipation and other difficulties arise not only in people, but also in pets, and even more often. For example, a cat's nutrition often depends on what it is fed. And if she has frequent cases of diarrhea, Linex for cats can help.

Linex was not originally intended for animals. And for a long time it was believed that this drug was only for people.

It belongs to the category of probiotics. They contain living cells of intestinal microflora. Linex is usually prescribed when dysbiosis is diagnosed. It can already cause diarrhea, flatulence, constipation, bloating, vomiting and stomach pain. When the balance of intestinal microflora is disturbed, this may be a signal of a bacterial or viral attack, a consequence of the use of a large number of antibiotics.

Cats are more susceptible to dangerous bacteria and substances entering their stomachs than humans. They also have indicated problems with the digestive system. And to treat pets, veterinarians increasingly began to prescribe Linex.

Although among them there is quite a debate about whether cats can use Linex. Some experts claim that this is a completely safe and effective medicine for cats. Others doubt this and prescribe other drugs, for example Bifitrilak and Ekterol.

When is a cat especially susceptible to dysbiosis?

Cats become especially susceptible to dysbiosis in the following cases:

  • while staying in a special hotel for cats;
  • when moving to a new home;
  • when a new animal appears in the house.

Emotional or physical stress can upset the balance of microflora in a cat's intestines, leading to constipation or chronic diarrhea. The consequences of these diseases can be very serious. The absorption of amino acids and other elements important for the health of the animal is impaired. As a result, this can trigger the development of allergies, sepsis and even intestinal lymphoma.

Often, pet owners are interested in what to give their cat for diarrhea. To answer this question, it is necessary to do tests and find out the cause of the disease. Only after receiving the results will the veterinarian be able to tell whether probiotics for cats are indicated in a given case.

Can cats be given the drug Linex?

In principle, Linex can be given to a cat.
Just like that, if there are no indications for this, of course it should not be given, especially since dysbacteriosis is, in principle, not relevant for cats and dogs. You can not put it into a bread crumb, but into a capsule of some harmless medicine, like Linex, pour Linex into it, put the pill in there, and close the capsule back. The video How to give a pill to a cat helped me a lot - until then we kept the cat together, a whole epic for everyone day.

I think no. This is a human drug. What, did your cat eat something wrong? Write in a personal message, my mother is a veterinarian

You can, just calculate the dosage as for children 3 years old.

No. It's better to consult a veterinarian.

There is no point in giving it, the stomach of cats is very acidic compared to humans, all good bacteria will die before reaching the intestines.

Maybe it’s better to give LACTOFERON (vetapteka), it’s easier to calculate the dosage there...

Give Linex, but it’s better to add 0.5 capsules to the food and also add Karsil, which is milk thistle for the liver. Linex - 2 weeks, Karsil or its equivalent - 30 days. Diseases of dogs and cats transmitted to humans Rabies in animals Biofield of dogs and cats Kittens Puppies.

Can

Can . A friend of mine recently went to the vet - they prescribed Linex.

A little a day is possible

What to give a kitten for diarrhea? The kitten is 2 months old.

Give the reason first, then you’ll get advice; it has to do with nutrition. viral something bacterial, helminths????

Why is it so important to know how to give a pill to your pet without getting hurt yourself?? Use cat treats. Here, everything seems to be clear: take a huge piece of sausage, put a pill in it and give it to the cat.

First of all, you need to understand what causes diarrhea. At least tell me what he eats - we can think about it.

Just like people, cats get sick too. But we don’t always have the opportunity to immediately contact a veterinarian, and sometimes this is not necessary (after all, we treat a simple cold on our own). Therefore, your cat should have a first aid kit with the necessary set of medications. The first aid kit should be stored in a convenient place, but out of reach of children and pets. From many years of practical experience, we advise you to have the following at home: 1. Bifidumbacterin or Baktisubtil. These drugs are sold in regular human pharmacies as remedies for indigestion and dysbacteriosis for children and adults. And this is the most effective medicine for diarrhea in adult cats and kittens, starting from 2 weeks of age. When diarrhea occurs, rapid dehydration of the body occurs (this is especially dangerous for kittens), then your first task is to provide timely assistance. So: For a cat older than six months, pour the contents of 1 capsule of bactisubtil (for kittens up to 6 months - 0.5 capsules) into a dessert spoon. Add boiled water and give it to drink. Oddly enough, they like this medicine so much that you will not have problems using it. Baktisubtil is a medicine slightly more expensive than bifidumbacterin (16 capsules cost about $6), so if you are financially strapped, you can always buy 1-2 bottles of bifidumbacterin at the pharmacy (1 bottle costs about $0.3). We do this with bifidumbacterin: pour 5 tsp into a small bowl, for example, a measuring cup. boiled water at room temperature (never warm or hot); open the bottle, pour in some water from the measuring cup to dissolve the contents of the bottle and pour everything back into the measuring cup. The medicine is ready for use. For kittens up to six months old, give half of the prepared solution at one time, for cats over six months old - all of it. The cat will be happy to drink it herself, but for the kitten you can pour it into the mouth using a regular pipette (just be careful). The prepared solution (if left) can be stored for up to 4-5 hours in the refrigerator (no more). Thus. To completely cure your pet of indigestion, it is enough to use the drug 2-3 times a day for 1-3 days. In most cases, one day is enough to normalize digestion. In this case, it is advisable not to feed the cat on the first day or, as a last resort, give it some food, but in no case dairy products. Bifidumbacterin or bactisubtil are absolutely harmless drugs and are prescribed by pediatricians even to premature babies. Important! Never give your cat Smecta or Linex. As a last resort, you can give Dialakt. The drug Biflor is also suitable for the treatment of indigestion (kittens 1 ml 2-3 times a day, adult cats 5 ml 2-3 times a day). However, it is worth noting that cats do not like this drug and you will have to force it into the animal’s mouth, which cannot be said about Baktisubtil and Bifidumbacterin.

The kitten needs to be treated by a veterinarian. Diarrhea is a consequence. The cause will be determined by the veterinarian.

You need to give him smecta through a syringe (without a needle)

“Pussies” are cool, of course, but the kitten needs to be treated! Perhaps he ate something, perhaps because he was not vaccinated, he caught the virus! You need to go to the clinic and get tested! If it’s a virus, then he might even die from diarrhea! TO THE CLINIC!!!!

We will answer the most frequently asked questions about the method of using the baby product, from what age can Linex for children in bags be used, how to dilute and give the powder to an infant up to a year old and older.

Activated carbon 1 tablet and water

The dog is constipated. Is it possible to give a human laxative?

Take a chance

Give the cat an urgently weak solution of potassium permanganate, Polysorb is for both people and animals. But, I was advised by people who have cats and dogs and if there is such a problem, they give them, like people, activated carbon, yogurt in capsules, Linex, or Diarrhea pills, like...

There is a special laxative for them.

Absolutely not! Human doses are lethal to animals. So, about 15 years ago, they came across a “cat” who, by mistake, was given a human laxative or something for the stomach… as a result, 10 liters of water were poured into her and she experienced 12 liters of an enema “for rinsing”…. the cat was literally torn apart. So don't you dare try if you're not an idiot.))))

To begin with, just give some vegetable oil, maybe it will help. Although if you swallowed a big piece. it could be an obstruction... You can try an enema. If it doesn't help, go to the vet.

Castor oil, effect after 5-6 hours

Take it out into nature. He will find the right weed himself.

From the forum I would treat it like this - transfer the cat to heals I d. Give hilak forte. Chamomile decoction. Liarsin and veracol. 3 times a day, an hour before meals, smecta, 1-6 parts of a sachet on the table. spoon of water 3 times a day, but 20 minutes before. before meals Linex or Bifidumbacterin 1 dose 3 times a day during...

In no case!!! We are veted. The doctor prescribed Vaseline oil or Lactulose (everything is available in a regular pharmacy). And in general, be extremely careful with bones, unless you occasionally eat sugar bones.

It is better to give her an enema, it is the safest and most effective. Or, as an option, rub your butt with a wet, rough rag. In response to this irritation, the process will begin. Animals (cats and dogs) can be given Linex diluted in water (poured into the mouth with a syringe without a needle) or similar drugs (they can even be given to infants, and the animal is considered the same as a child). It helped our cat.

Contact an animal doctor - a veterinarian, he will prescribe what laxatives are needed and in what doses, so that constipation does not recur, run more often, so that she moves more

What can you give a cat for diarrhea?

Linex but luchne coal by weight

In general, the situation is that the next cat on the carpet in the room either burped or came out with a large greenish sausage with fur. I didn’t give antibiotics today, I gave it to Linex, I had it.

Diarrhea in cats should go away on its own (unless, of course, it is free of mucus, blood, etc.). What kind of people. This animal!!! Just a few pills at once. It's diarrhea, nothing serious.

Vetom-3. Sold in pet stores in the medicine departments. A very effective remedy.

Think about what you don't need to give him!! ! Why is he so “relaxed”?? To the doctor!! ! And symptoms (i.e. diarrhea itself) in people are treated with a 50 ml dose of vodka with a little salt... (must be applied without fanaticism). This is how the symptoms are removed, not the disease!!

Diarrhea can be due to improper digestion (that is, a reaction to some product, most often dairy products), or it can be gastritis, or diarrhea often accompanies intestinal infections. It is important to consult a doctor if diarrhea occurs more than once, vomiting occurs, or the animal stops eating.

Help! My cat is sick!

She might just vomit and eat something wrong.

But it happens that the baby needs to be given special probiotic preparations that can populate the baby’s intestines with beneficial bacteria. One of the popular tools in this group is Linex.

Poisoning, what did you feed?

If only you could let your cat go to a field with herbs, they can heal themselves just fine.

My cat is also feeling bad, she’s dying... I’m crying. Snowshoe cat. doesn't eat. doesn’t walk when she walks - her legs move apart and falls, she doesn’t drink well, she’s become very thin, it all happened 4 days ago, she rarely goes to the toilet, tonight she hid under the table, they say they’re hiding, they smell death, but I can’t believe it, because she lived with us since I was born.

How come they are closed? And she vomited because she ate something wrong. Maybe you didn’t notice and she ate a piece of some toy?

She still feels nauseous, that’s why she’s breathing like that. A doctor can determine the cause of vomiting. It happens that a cat vomits when its stomach is full of its own fur, which it licks. Then it's not dangerous. But there may be other reasons

Reproduction and Sterilization. Other questions. Cats. Rodents. Rabbits.Linex give the whole capsule, without opening it outside the capsule, the drug is destroyed in the aggressive environment of the stomach.

Poisoned by poor-quality food or poisoned by someone on purpose

How old is the cat? This may be rejection of a foreign body from the body. She could have eaten something wrong on the street, or simply choked. It could also be an allergic reaction. Have you given her anything new lately, maybe switched her to a new food? In any case, reduce portions of food, but do not deprive it completely. Provide your cat with peace, plenty of sleep, and less anxiety.

If everything happened quickly, then there is nothing to be afraid of - most likely she ate something wrong. But if, for example, she didn’t feel well in the evening, and only now she vomited, then it could be an infection... Pour more water into her bowl (although most likely she will refuse) and give her 1/6 of suprastin, if this is poisoning, it will relieve the allergic reaction, and if not, it will not do much harm. Perhaps you have recently treated a cat and given medications? In this case, buy and administer Vetom 1.1 on the tip of a knife 3 times a day - this is a type of our bifidumbacterin or Linex - it normalizes the functioning of the intestines... Good luck and health to the kitty

In Krasnogorsk it is 12:51, just like in Moscow. How come veterinarians don’t work anymore?

She needs grass, and if she swallowed wool, then she needs to watch the cat, if she cannot spit out the lump, give her a mild laxative special for cats

In this case, Linex is used as a prophylactic agent that promotes the growth of beneficial microflora in the intestines of a newborn. About proper nutrition for a nursing mother gt gt gt. At what age can the medicine be given?

The kitten ate 5 Linex tablets. What will happen to him :_(

Nothing. Linex improves intestinal microflora)) and in general there is no need to throw tablets where the kitten can get them

What is the best way to give your baby LINEX before or after meals? And what period of treatment is needed to normalize stool? 8- The child has diarrhea, it looks like dysbiosis. baby We recently got sick, some kind of rotavirus was recognized...

He will poop with Linux.

The intestinal microflora will improve. These pills are not only not dangerous, but also practically useless, so there is nothing to worry about. It is better to store other medications in tightly closed plastic food containers - cats cannot open them, they can only roll them on the floor.

Nothing will happen, Linux doesn’t cure much, but it doesn’t cripple anything)))

Over time, he will begin to talk, read and write.

There will be constipation, at most.

Linex is a combination drug of three components of natural microflora, which are found in different parts of the intestine. It is used for treatment, as well as possible prevention of dysbiosis.

Everything will be fine, on the contrary, it’s even good, but don’t give it any more, and put it in a secluded place, otherwise the cat will feel bad, and you say he climbs everywhere, which means you should put the pills in the chest of drawers, or any other box, so that he can’t (I didn’t have the strength to open it) Good luck, watch the cat

The cat is sick.

Need to see a vet and urgently

Or, according to the instructions, give enterodesis by weight as for infants, or activated charcoal - for an average cat 1-1.5. After normalization of the condition, give probiotics Linex for 2-3 weeks, yoghurts in capsules, Linex is better - add 1 2 capsules to food 2 times a day…

With such questions, it is better to consult a veterinarian, otherwise you may kill your pet. Give him Linex, dilute the capsule in water and put it in his mouth. It will not be worse.

It’s not clear what kind of pork light food you started feeding him. Pork is no longer light food. And then it was necessary to switch from dry food to natural food gradually, and not immediately. Of course, the surest way is to consult a veterinarian. doctor, at least by phone. Otherwise, try giving him a child's dose of laxative.

Try giving your cat Vaseline oil. Sometimes this happens when you change your diet. If it does not poop, consult a veterinarian, since constipation can lead to complete intestinal obstruction, and this is very dangerous for the health, and sometimes for the life of the animal.

You tore off his pancreas with pork. We need to see a veterinarian.

Cats can't eat pork. Lung, not even pork, is generally useless for cats. There is practically only connective tissue ((((( So, go to the vet for restorative treatment. Don’t forget to get tested for helminths. Pork is very often infected with them, and some of them are no longer excreted from the body ((((((( ((((((

If you want to get more or less practical advice here, then give at least as much information as possible: what you feed him (perhaps people will immediately see something unacceptable in his diet), what the previous owners fed him (if it is possible to find out) ... “When they took the kitten, they gave us his food too, before it ran out” - so what kind of “food” was it and what did you start feeding when that food ran out?

What exactly - just loose stools a couple of times a day or constantly gushing? We also had the same problem, we adopted a kitten, and the milk made the stool loose. I was advised to give him boiled chicken liver - it strengthens him. They also advised me to give activated charcoal, but I didn’t dare. I had to exclude milk, but after a couple of months everything returned to normal, I even give milk sometimes.

Give the kitten chicken white meat without skin and half a teaspoon of good vodka, give him a good night's sleep, give him another half a teaspoon of vodka, we even cured our dog of distemper with vodka, but do not overdo it, literally half a teaspoon, but before that, at least feed him a little meat, not fatty, preferably white chicken

Well, it’s happened, my one-year-old son ate dry dog ​​food, what will happen, allergies???

Why do cats carry dead animals home? How do you know that your man is cheating on you? These signs are not a reason to stop taking the antibiotic, so treatment continues, but it needs to be supplemented with products from the Linex line.

They used it with beer before and everyone is alive! Nothing will happen if the child is not allergic

Well, be glad that you don’t have a cat and don’t have a litter box :)

You can give Linex, it stabilizes the microflora and helps the immune system. If the animal takes it normally with food, then give it with food. If not, then from a spoon or syringe, yes, drink it. In this form...

3 month old kitten vomited dry food

It happens that my cats vomit from raw meat

How to give capsules? The doctor prescribed medicine for the cat in Linex and Essential Forte capsules. If Linex is a powder and can be diluted in water and given with a syringe, then I can’t imagine how to give Essentiale.

The cat is 3 months old, and you feed him dry food)))) zbs)))) why not nails? :D

He devoured the little one.

So he overfed! Try switching to just crackers yourself!

Instructions 1It is not advisable to accustom small kittens (1-2 months) to dry food. But if the owners still decide to start feeding with this product, the “drying” must first be prepared. The food should be soaked in special milk for kittens with low lactose content (sold in pet stores), low-fat kefir, broth or water. The resulting slurry can be mixed with meat feed (minced meat). 2The stomach and intestines of small kittens are very delicate and sensitive, so solid dry food can lead to microtrauma to the mucous membrane. Dry food should not just be filled with warm liquid, but should be waited until it absorbs it and swells. After this, you can use a fork to make a kind of mashed porridge for the kitten. 3In order for the kitten to quickly switch to solid food, the cat during lactation must be fed with the same food that it is planned to switch the baby to. At this age, you should not give your pet only dry food; you should alternate this food with finely chopped meat, poultry and fish fillets. 4Starting from one and a half months, gradually dilute dry food for a kitten with less and less liquid and do not mix it with softer food. The transition should be smooth; dry food in its pure form without mixing water can be safely given to a kitten only after three months. 5 By two months, the kitten should switch completely to solid food. At 2-3 months, kittens develop taste preferences, so it is advisable to accustom pets to dry food at this age. At this time, kittens still have a small stomach, but they do not feel full, so they cannot decide for themselves exactly how much to eat; it is best to give them food in small portions four times a day. Pets that eat dry food especially need access to clean water. 6At 3-6 months, kittens begin to change teeth, so during this period dry food is most useful, it will help temporary teeth fall out faster and will promote the development of chewing muscles. Along with dry food, you can give your kitten boiled chicken, meat, fish and cottage cheese. High-quality dry food contains all the necessary vitamins and minerals, but if it is not the main food, you can additionally give the kitten special vitamin supplements. 76-12 month old kittens continue to grow, but they can now be fed in the same way as adult animals. It should be noted that it is undesirable to give milk to pets at any age, as this can lead to digestive upset. For grown animals up to one year old, it is better to diversify their food, rather than switching immediately and completely to dry food. The food itself must be of high quality; it is advisable to choose a product designed specifically for kittens. Read here, I don’t recommend dry food, feed soups, well, in general, natural food

To the doctor, the cat’s brother seemed to have such crap. There are either tablets or an injection. And alive and well.

Is it possible to give a cat Linux? Irishka Sheredina Student 175, at the poll 5 years ago. I understand that your cat has panos dysbacteriosis, vomiting, and doesn’t eat well? I had this happen to my cat, the best thing to do is contact your vet, that would be the best option for...

Feed me meat.

You need to cook homemade food, chicken, fish, etc. and lead a healthy lifestyle

My mother..! here are some tips!? Remember the crumb of black bread in your hands well and give it! If your ears are cracking, then switch to Hercules!

Perhaps you overfed him, don’t feed him yet, only water, then give him food a little bit and more often, if the reaction happens again, then maybe the food is not suitable (you didn’t write what kind of food it is). For a while, the kitten can be given Linex or Hilak Forte to normalize the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

Kitten has not pooped for 2 months for 2 months

I would go to the vet

The veterinarian prescribed the medicine Lactobifid. Today my friend searched the whole city, but couldn’t buy. They don’t have anything like that there. One veterinary pharmacy advised her to give her cat human Linex.

To the vet... You'll ruin his stomach like that - it's all in a heap... And food and boiled chicken... And even milk to go with it! I wouldn’t be surprised if some kind of Whiskas/Friskas food is economical... Even an adult cat can’t stand this kind of food... Not like a small kitten... Did you get rid of worms?

Massage your tummy! often. clockwise. Give a little Linex in the food. and go to the doctor, the little ones are dying from constipation.

The feeding sucks! no wonder the kitten has problems with stool!

Start feeding normally. Drying good quality for kittens...

Do not feed and give water, do an enema and do not give dry food at all!!!

Never give your cat Smecta or Linex. As a last resort, you can give Dialakt. For the treatment of indigestion, the drug Biflor is also suitable for kittens, 1 ml 2-3 times a day, for an adult cat, 5 ml 2-3 times a day.

He must have water to drink at all times. dry food strengthens. Touch your tummy—if it’s swollen and not soft, then it’s time to pour in a little bit of growth. butter mouth. or let him spoon it. It happens that if the cat was not wormed in advance, then the kittens are infected with worms. You just need to know what and when to give for worms. Your veterinarian will probably tell you this, taking into account the age and weight of the kitten.

You definitely need to give kefir. And for constipation, give Vaseline oil.

EITHER dry OR natural. You will also plant a bunch of kidneys for him, if you haven’t already - constipation is very common in kidney patients.

We adopted a British kitten 4 days ago, the problem is that she doesn’t go to the toilet in big ways, only in small ones

A cat cannot have milk until he is 6-8 months old, he either cannot go to the toilet, or he diarrhea a lot!... that’s why he can die... first of all, give him activated vugilla... grow him with water and give him a syringe, one tablet because he will spit out the ox... . You can give him Linex... and take him to the veterinarian quickly, or call... otherwise he will die in 1-3 days!

Remedies for digestive disorders for pets should always be on hand for every owner. It is best to choose Bifidumbacterin for cats, its dosage is indicated in the instructions. Bifidumbacterin for cats is a very effective and efficient remedy.

Maybe he doesn’t want to yet. This happens due to stress. Or maybe he’s putting away “gifts” somewhere. Follow it carefully. It's best to put 2 trays. Many cats like to do big and small things in different trays. You are feeding your kitten incorrectly. Read it properly if you want him to live long and be healthy.

Look in the corners, under the bed, he probably walks around, but not in the litter box)

He walks, but not in the litter box, I had the same situation, the cat only went into the litter box for a small amount, and then they found his droppings in his dad’s bag))

Give 0.5 ml Vaseline oil every 4 hours. He will do everything. And review your diet.

You think he’s not walking, look in the corners. And if at all the kitten has some stress, a change of residence. The time will come and he will spoil you again

I gave my cat LINEX for loose stools 1 capsule 3 times a day. First from a syringe, and then mixed into food for a week. It helped a lot.

Give Royal Canin Fiber Response FR31 special food Royal Canin Fiber Response FR31. Diet for cats with digestive disorders such as acute or chronic constipation.

Www.mauforum.ru cats cannot digest milk! It’s strange that he doesn’t diarrhea, but rather constipated

People, please help me with advice! The kitten feels bad.

It is already weak, and you want to deprive it of nutrients. He is not a machine to make organic things out of thin air.

We picked up a cat on the street, a young cat about 1 year old. We have a 3-year-old unvaccinated cat, we are now feeding both of them with Purina Pro Plan Drying. Yes, I understand, today I will replace Hilak with Linex. sour cream is good if you give Linex - no need for bifdumbacterin! it’s either or hilak...

For diarrhea, use Linex with food, open the capsule and add the powder to your food for a couple of days, you can give charcoal. In general, there is boiled fish, just remove the bones, there is cottage cheese and milk, eggs both boiled and raw (the latter when he is older), why feed him whiskey? Better natural and fresh than chemicals! My cat is already 9 years old, he has never eaten this crap! Always boiled fish, cottage cheese, egg. I very rarely give him steamed meat, he loves cucumbers and eats tomatoes and watermelon)))

Bought in transition. Diarrhea, vomiting, weakness. The virus is clear. That's exactly how it starts. Without PROFESSIONAL EMERGENCY help, the kitten will simply die. Need antibiotics. droppers. treatment is prescribed individually. And also the feeding should be changed URGENTLY. yours is 100% wrong. Cow's milk is not food. Because due to the lack of an enzyme in cats, it is wasted. And whiskey, like other economy feeds, is POISON feed. Made from industrial waste, with harmful dyes and prohibited additives. The food must be either Premium or Super-premium. Or the food is natural. It is based on beef, veal (sometimes chicken) meat. But now, first of all, we need to go to the CLINIC. If, of course, you hope to save... If a kitten has, say, panleukopenia (which is very similar in symptoms), then the matter is resolved literally in minutes or hours..

1. Do not feed Whiskas, as well as Kitikat and similar economy-class “feeds”. It is a poison for animals, killing them painfully. If the kitten cannot eat dry food, feed Berkley or Carny pate, for example. Or pieces of royal canin - from the most inexpensive. 2. Milk is allowed only for small kittens. Now it is possible in small quantities, then do not give, only fermented milk products. 3. Only a doctor can answer what’s wrong with your kitten after a personal examination and, if necessary, ordering tests. So “we can’t go yet” is not an option. In the case of small kittens, even one day of delay may be enough.

Hmmm, why do you support divorcees? Only sick animals are sold in the subway! Whiskas is in the trash and so is the milk. Don’t feed the kitten yet, give it smecta, it helps with diarrhea. They even give it to newborn babies. Yes, and I always give my dog ​​smecta when he has diarrhea. Place the whole sachet in a mug, but add just a little bit of water. And pour it into his mouth through a syringe. It won't be worse for sure. Change the diet, you won’t be able to feed normally natural food, so switch to premium, super premium or holistic class drying. You can’t do this without a vet, the kitten won’t survive. As written above, we need antibiotics and IVs!

I’m not a veterinarian, of course... but all my cats eat only dry whiskey, one is already more than 10 years old, the other is 7, the previous one lived for 10... and they themselves choose what they eat or not eat when they are sick... the kitten is simply weaning itself off its mother’s milk, this is an adaptation to new food and milk…. everything will pass without doctors, you’ll see... Once upon a time, my kitten at the same age ate 200 grams of raw minced meat (stolen) and had the same symptoms (diarrhea with blood...), but after a couple of days everything went away and he became a normal kitten without doctors!

Is it going well in cats? Everywhere they write only about bifidum. And another question, alissiya, how did you give Linex? Did you empty the contents from the capsule? We are now prescribed Unidox to fight hemobartonellosis; giving probiotics at the same time is my idea.

Why can't you go to the vet? WHAT could be the reason? Is it possible that you are without a telephone in the Sahara Desert, deaf and dumb, and your legs have been cut off? Well, HOW so???Can you eat, or have you also been starving for five days? Surely you can eat it... You bought it cheap in the transition - now invest 10 times more! They knew what they were getting into

Bought it on the cheap, feed it cheap... Take him to the doctor - he has worms and infections up to his ears. Treat and feed normally...

Better yet, sharpen your shovel and look for a quiet place for the grave.

There is nothing to do anymore. the kitten is not a tenant. bought a sucker, wormed, no vaccinations, feed it slop, go to the vet. You don’t have to stress anymore - the vet won’t save the kitten, and he (in your opinion) will be to blame. So…. prepare the box and spatula

Change food urgently!!! Whiskas is not allowed for a kitten of this age. and in general this whiskey is rubbish.

We recently treated our cat for calcivirosis. Now, while taking antibiotics, dysbacteriosis has developed. The doctor advised me to give Linex. But it’s a large capsule and it’s difficult to push it into a cat’s mouth. Maybe someone can give more advice.

Tell me how to give medicine to a cat if he spits it out in the form of foam?

Try it with sausage or meat

Fthalazol, the tablet is divided into parts and given to the cat 2-3 times a day, a small piece of tablet 1 4 - 1 8 tablets. Linex, white powder in capsules. Don't delay. Contact your veterinarian immediately. The diagnosis should only be made by a veterinarian.

He can stir it into the water and he will drink it slowly and not notice.

Wrap it in something along with its paws. (first draw the medicine into the syringe, if it is liquid, open the mouth and squirt it into the throat. The same with the tablet. Push it far into the throat so as not to spit it out.

Is it possible to replace the medicine with a similar one in injections?

You take the cat by the withers, tilt his head up and quickly push the pill onto the root of his tongue with your finger. Or buy a pill dispenser at a pet store.

I give these things in capsules.;) . you buy something in capsules (residues of the substance so that they do not harm the cat. I usually buy Creon, Enterol or Linex for these purposes), throw away the contents. If the capsule is large, use nail scissors to carefully cut both halves of the capsule and shorten them. put your bitter pill into a new small capsule. After that, wash your hands - they are also bitter because of the pill. Then rinse the capsule in water for a couple of seconds - this will wash away traces of the bitter medicine, and they are easier to swallow when wet. continue as usual. There will be no foam with this method - they foam from the bitter. The main thing is just to stuff the pill and make sure it’s swallowed... What I do is put the cat on the table with its back to me. If he actively runs away, wrap him in a towel and put him in a tight box. It will twitch, but more slowly (in theory, there are also special fixing bags, but it’s difficult to find them). With my left hand I open my mouth wider, with my right hand I place the tablet as far as possible. then quickly close the mouth with your hand and either stroke the throat so that it swallows, or blow lightly on the nose. This also makes them swallow. check your cheeks - sometimes these talents hide the pill and then spit it out. try with capsules. . I gave mine so much tinidazole. . and he is very, very bitter. . antibiotics are even better than luck:)

This girl I know is more experienced with cats, so I trusted her, she has five tails of her own, so I relied on her advice. I started giving both of them Linex. The boy began to eat somehow worse.

Try to hold in your hand something that he REALLY loves and immediately after the medicine give him this tasty treat.

I crushed the tablet with the crumb of bread, then the bitterness of the tablet would not foam, that’s what the vet advised me to do.

Diarrhea

The breeder assured that her cats do not have worms, so the cat does not have worms yet. But there are fleas, at least I saw one. For now I continue to give Enterosgel, Linex and Smecta.

Put it in a box, wrap it in a blanket, call a taxi and take it away. Better yet, call them at home, the dog will be less stressed.

Call a doctor at home... Be sure to check for enteritis...

They told you to take him to the doctor. blanket, carrier and see a doctor.

What are probiotics: composition and mechanism of action

First of all, we want to warn pet owners that probiotic milk formulas that are formulated for humans may be harmful to your pet. The microflora of the gastrointestinal tract of cats is significantly different from that of humans.

Experienced veterinarians name three important nuances when choosing this drug:

  • It is desirable that the drug contains 10 or more strains of beneficial bacteria.
  • Each dose of the drug must contain at least twenty million microorganisms.
  • You should choose products from a world-famous company that produces probiotics for cats. Feedback from veterinarians and owners is also very important in this case.

It should be noted that even knowing the principle of choosing these drugs, you should not self-medicate: the drug should be prescribed to your pet by an experienced veterinarian after the animal’s tests have been carried out. It must be purchased from specialized veterinary pharmacies or pet stores. Pay attention to the storage conditions of probiotics: they usually retain their properties at low temperatures.

The shelf life of such products does not exceed two to three weeks, since that is how long beneficial bacteria live. Even if, according to the instructions attached to the drug, its shelf life is, for example, a month, already in the fourth week its effectiveness is significantly reduced.

Probiotics are preparations containing beneficial microorganisms that promote normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. With their help, you can restore the natural microflora in the digestive organs and prevent various disturbances in their functioning.

Domestic cats move little and do not walk outside, so they often develop dysbiosis, which is treated with probiotics.

When creating probiotic preparations, 10 to 15 strains of various yeasts and bacteria are used. As a rule, one such product includes several varieties of beneficial microorganisms.

The beneficial effects of probiotics on the cat’s body include the following positive processes:

  • activation of immune cells;
  • production of vitamins B 12 and K;
  • neutralizing harmful bacteria and displacing them from the digestive tract;
  • restoration of normal microflora in the intestines and mucous membranes of the oral cavity;
  • support of acid balance and the level of phagocytes (protective cells);
  • normalization of the digestive and excretory systems;
  • reducing the risk of allergies.

READ Why does a cat have a nosebleed: first aid and reasons

Probiotic preparations have various forms of release, namely:

  • capsules;
  • pills;
  • solutions;
  • beverages.

Medicines have varying effectiveness. For example, tablets, solutions and drinks, when they enter the stomach, are immediately mixed with the secreted juice, which leads to the death of some beneficial microorganisms. For this reason, the bacterial strains contained in such medications must be acid-resistant.

Probiotics, which contain microorganisms that are not acid-resistant, should be available in capsule form. The shell of such a drug will protect the active substances until it penetrates the small intestine, where the microflora is concentrated. There, the “protection” dissolves, but the beneficial substances remain unchanged.

Probiotics neutralize harmful bacteria and restore microflora.

To choose a medicine that will bring real benefits to your pet, when purchasing you will need to carefully study the attached instructions and pay attention to the following nuances:

  • Compound. An effective probiotic medication must contain at least 10 strains of beneficial microorganisms.
  • Dose saturation. With a single dose, the animal should receive at least 20 million beneficial bacteria.
  • Best before date. Beneficial microorganisms live from 14 to 20 days. With a longer period of storage, they lose their properties, and such a drug is unlikely to bring benefit to the animal’s body.
  • Manufacturer. It is better to choose compounds manufactured by well-known companies with a good reputation.
  • Storage conditions. In order for the medicine to retain its beneficial qualities, it must be stored only at low temperatures. If the instructions for use allow for other conditions, the drug may be counterfeit or contain chemical components.

Probiotics for cats should be selected based on their composition, manufacturer, and dosage strength.

Constipation in cats and methods of dealing with them

Constipation in British cats is very common, and this condition is caused primarily by cats swallowing hair when licking themselves, as well as by poor diet.

Constipation in cats should be understood as rare or difficult bowel movements (defecation), when feces accumulate and harden in the large intestine. In other words, constipation in cats is a retention of stool, which ruins the animal’s life with painful and uncomfortable sensations. A healthy British cat should have stool once every 1-2 days.

Constipation in a cat is difficult to miss, because a pet suffering from this scourge is lethargic, has no appetite, and may also experience nausea and vomiting. At the same time, the cat’s tummy is swollen, and all attempts to go to the toilet are painful and difficult to succeed (or fail at all).

Just like in humans, the consequences of constipation in cats can be quite unpleasant. During the processes that occur in the cat’s large intestine, harmful substances are formed, which must be eliminated naturally within 1-2 days.

With constipation, these harmful substances remain in the intestines longer than expected and poison the animal’s body through intoxication with decay products.

Such toxic loads do not have the best effect on the cat’s internal organs: the functions of the liver and kidneys are impaired, there is an increased load on the heart, hair begins to fall out, and dermatitis can develop. If constipation in cats is not treated in time, this condition can even lead to the death of the animal.

In order to help a cat and provide effective assistance in this condition, it is very important to understand the causes of constipation, which can be very different.

The main causes of constipation in British cats:

Most often, cats suffering from various diseases of the rectum, gastrointestinal tract, liver and kidneys, as well as those with orthopedic and neurological disorders, are susceptible to constipation. Constipation occurs in older cats than in young cats or kittens.

Causes of irregular painful bowel movements in cats:

  • entry of a foreign body into the intestines (for example, swallowed bones, fragments of toys, other foreign objects)
  • incorrect and unbalanced nutrition
  • accumulation of hair as a result of licking (trichobezoar)
  • perineal hernia
  • various inflammatory processes in the rectum and anus
  • when a cat's anus is noticeably narrowed due to scarring (stricture)
  • various diseases of the paranal glands
  • intestinal diseases (decreased intestinal motility and increase in volume)
  • inflammatory processes in the intestines, tumors, hyperplasia, etc.

If treatment with gentle methods at home is not effective, and the cat continues to experience discomfort and pain, you should immediately contact a veterinarian, who will determine the cause of constipation and prescribe treatment. To diagnose and treat constipation, cats are examined, given an enema, a blood test is prescribed, and, if necessary, an X-ray with contrast or an ultrasound examination of the abdominal cavity.

How to help a cat with constipation at home?

If a cat has periodic problems with bowel movements, then she is given various means that help soften the stool. These are well-known lactulose preparations, such as Duphalac, Lactusan, as well as vaseline oil, which is sold in human pharmacies.

1. Vaseline oil is given to cats orally one to three times a day, 5-50 ml (for each cat, the dose is selected individually, based on weight) until the stool returns to normal. Vaseline oil softens feces and lubricates the intestinal walls, thereby helping the animal to empty it.

Cat owners should know that petroleum jelly is not absorbed and is practically harmless to the animal's body.

It is strictly forbidden to use any other oil, such as sunflower or olive oil, instead of petroleum jelly. Such oils are actively absorbed by the intestines and do not reach the feces, and in large quantities they can damage the animal’s liver.

2. Giving castor oil to a cat is strictly prohibited. Such actions on your part can lead to severe pain in the cat and will not give the desired result.-

3. Duphalac is given twice a day, 2 - 2.5 ml. The dose is selected at the rate of 0.5 ml per kilogram of animal weight (the average weight of an adult cat is 3–5 kg). Duphalac is given until stool is completely normalized, but for longer than 5 days.

4. One of the common folk methods of combating constipation in cats is a mixture of condensed milk and raw water. When drinking this drink, stool softens in the intestines, which helps normalize bowel movements.

5. Drugs with a laxative effect are used in dosage strictly according to the instructions (for example, Sodium Picosulfate). But it is very desirable. so that such medications are prescribed by a veterinarian.

6. Drugs that help normalize intestinal microflora - prescribed in courses or for continuous use.

If, after using the above methods, the cat’s constipation does not go away, and the animal’s condition is getting worse and worse, you need to do a deep cleansing enema.

Such a complex procedure is best done in a veterinary clinic, or call a veterinarian at home.

To wash the intestines, you may need 5-8 liters of water, and you can add lactulose, lactusan, duphalac to the microenema solution to help the cat empty its intestines on its own.

How to prevent constipation in cats?

If your cat regularly experiences constipation, then you should think about prevention. The main preventive measures to prevent bowel problems in cats include the following:

Timely removal of hair, combing (cat grooming). Also give your cat special pastes (cleansing phytomins) that remove hair from the intestines. They are sold in veterinary pharmacies and pet stores.

A balanced diet with sufficient amounts of plant fiber. To introduce additional fiber into an animal's menu, steamed bran is often used.

The daily norm for their consumption is 1 tablespoon.

In addition to meat and fish, the diet must contain vegetables in sufficient quantities (for example, boiled carrots, cauliflower and others), as well as grain porridges.

A sedentary lifestyle often leads to frequent constipation in cats, especially for neutered cats.

Therefore, provide your pet with the opportunity to move more, play with him more often, buy toys for cats, and do not ignore your cat’s requests to play with her.

After all, when a cat moves a lot, it has a beneficial effect on intestinal motility, thereby preventing problems with timely bowel movements.

Very often, following these simple rules can protect your cats from serious health problems. I wish you that your cats are always healthy!

When is probiotic use recommended?

These drugs are vital for:

  1. Malabsorption is a violation of the absorption of nutrients in the gastrointestinal tract. This disease almost always accompanies diarrhea.
  2. Detoxification from antibiotic treatment. After each administration of antibacterial agents, probiotics for cats are prescribed.
  3. Renal failure developed against the background of hyperthyroidism. In this case, it is recommended to switch your pet to cat food with probiotics (Eagle Pack Holistic, Nutro, Brit, Proformance).

Probiotics are prescribed in conjunction with antibiotics.

Indications for the use of probiotics are the following conditions in cats:

  • detoxification as a result of treatment with antibacterial drugs;
  • disruption of the processes of absorption of nutrients in the gastrointestinal tract (malabsorption);
  • renal failure caused by hyperthyroidism.

As a rule, the listed processes are accompanied by an upset stomach, so probiotics for cats with diarrhea are an integral part of drug treatment.

What factors contribute to imbalance in a cat's intestines?

There are a number of negative factors that can have a detrimental effect on a cat’s intestinal microflora.

These include:

  • stress;
  • poor nutrition and poor quality feed;
  • vaccination;
  • surgical interventions;
  • inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract;
  • disturbances in the functioning of the genitourinary system;
  • renal failure;
  • pancreatic diseases;
  • taking antibacterial and steroid drugs.

The risk of dysbacteriosis in a cat increases in the following cases:

  • long trips;
  • changing of the living place;
  • the need for the animal to stay “in foster care” with friends or in cat hotels;
  • the arrival of a new family member.

The listed situations often lead to stressful conditions, and in such cases, cats’ appetite and functioning of the digestive system may be disrupted, which provokes dysbiosis.

Features of receiving Linex

If the animal is mildly ill, a course of this drug during feeding is sufficient. But if your dog has constant vomiting, diarrhea, lack of appetite, signs of intoxication and dehydration, Linex will not help. First, you need to eliminate the cause of the disease by prescribing the correct treatment, which can only be determined by a veterinarian. It could be:

  • a course of antibiotics for infectious or fungal infections of the animal;
  • taking special medications to stop diarrhea, vomiting, and the development of intoxication (usually the same medications are prescribed as for humans, for example, metoclopramide).
  • When the furry patient’s condition has stabilized, a diet is prescribed for the recovery period while taking probiotics, in particular Linex.

Is it possible to give Linex for vomiting in dogs?

Yes, it is possible, but as stated above, first you need to eliminate the vomiting itself, and give Linex only when the condition has stabilized. If vomiting continues, the capsules will simply come out through the mouth without having any effect. It turns out that efforts and financial costs will be wasted without a hint of improvement.

Dogs have natural and intoxicating vomiting. In the first case, the dog can eat grass on its own, after which it will vomit. This usually occurs when the animal experiences periodic minor deteriorations in its health. On an instinctive level, the pet tries to help itself by inducing vomiting.

People also do this if they suspect poisoning, taking large amounts of liquid with potassium permanganate or activated carbon. Natural vomiting occurs once and should not cause concern to the owner, since the dog will continue to lead an active lifestyle as if nothing had happened.

In the second case, when the urge to vomit is repeated, exhausting, accompanied by a sharp loss of weight, interest in life, chills, diarrhea, it is worth seeking help from a specialist who will determine the cause of the phenomenon and prescribe treatment. Intoxication vomiting is caused by major problems in the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas. Linex will only play a supporting role here as a supporting drug against the background of the prescribed treatment.

Summing up

Linex can be prescribed to dogs for any form of digestive system disorder. It definitely won't get any worse. In mild cases, it can be used as a preventive remedy for stomach problems. In severe complicated cases, taking Linex alone will not provide relief; its use must be accompanied by high-quality treatment of the underlying disease. If Linex does not help for several days, you need to consult a doctor for specialized help.

Among the variety of probiotics, the following drugs are considered the most effective means for restoring intestinal microflora in cats:

  • Bifitrilak. The components of this product not only restore the balance of beneficial bacteria in the animal’s intestines, but also neutralize pathogenic microflora.
  • Enterol. This drug contains yeast fungi Saccharomyces boulardii, which can destroy pathogenic and conditionally harmful microorganisms. The drug is effective against Shigella, Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, Yersinia, Clostridia, Candida and other pathogenic bacteria.
  • Zoonorm. The medicine is created on the basis of substances that can retain their healing properties while passing through the aggressive acidic environment of the stomach and intestines. The components of the drug stimulate the growth of bifidobacteria and fight pathogenic organisms, as well as activate the synthesis of B vitamins and increase the ability of cells to absorb calcium.
  • Subtilis. This medicine contains strains of bacteria Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis, which fight pathogenic microflora and restore the balance of nutrients in the intestines, thereby helping to strengthen the immune system.
  • Probiotic for cats Viyo. This nutritious drink is a complex of substances of natural origin and allows you to increase the number of beneficial bacteria that help protect the animal’s body. In addition, the active substances of the drug destroy pathogens.

The drug Enterol effectively destroys pathogenic microorganisms.

The above drugs make up a tiny part of the total number of probiotic medications for cats that the modern pharmaceutical industry offers. Sometimes even specialists find it difficult to make a choice in favor of one remedy or another.

Is it possible to give a cat Linex for diarrhea – Treatment of gastritis

Escherichia coli (E.Coli) is a bacterium ( also eubacteria (lat.

) (
also eubacteria (lat
), consisting of pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. Pathogenic ones are the basis for the occurrence of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the digestive, genital and urinary organs of men and women. Non-pathogenic ones live in interaction with the intestinal microflora.

Varieties

A common pathogenic bacterium is hemolytic Escherichia coli ( called a voluminous (physical) or flat (drawn) object of an elongated (according to one of the dimensions) shape, of a relatively small size

) (
called a volumetric (physical) or flat (drawn) object of an elongated (according to one of the dimensions) shape, of a relatively small size
).
The consequences of bacteria ( also eubacteria (lat
) (
also eubacteria (lat
) - from serious poisoning to the development of dysbacteriosis, colibacillosis. Often the rods become the culprits of diseases - inflammation of the urinary canal, testicles, vagina, lungs; purulent infection of the brain, blood.

Lactose-negative Escherich bacillus is an opportunistic microorganism. It is not detected in the intestines for a long time. As the concentration increases, the disease manifests itself.

Hemolytic bacillus in an infant is the cause of death in the absence of timely assistance.

Infection with a rod ( called a three-dimensional (physical) or flat (drawn) object of an elongated (according to one of the dimensions) shape, relatively small size

) Escherich's disease is transmitted by the fecal-oral route.

Routes of infection:

  • consumption of unwashed vegetables, fruits, unboiled liquids;
  • violation of sanitary rules and regulations.

The main group at risk of infection is children.

Hemolyzing bacillus in adults appears with immunodeficiency, acute respiratory infections, and taking antibiotics.

Escherichia coli (called a three-dimensional (physical) or flat (drawn) object of an elongated (according to one of the dimensions) shape, relatively small size) in women

Escherich's bacillus in the intestines provokes infections in the body, but, being benign, they disappear within a 7-10 day period. Infections do not cause aggravation and do not cause chronic diseases.

Beware of infection of the genitourinary organs. The source is intestinal bacteria.

Due to the high content of E. coli in the feces, they enter the urine and genitals ( An organ is a separate collection of different types of cells and tissues that perform a specific function within a living organism

) (
Organ is a separate set of different types of cells and tissues that performs a specific function within a living organism
) (
Organ is a separate set of different types of cells and tissues that performs a specific function within a living organism
).

Ways of infection getting into the urethra and vagina:

  1. Lack of hygiene (the perineum of the genital organs ( Organ is a separate set of different types of cells and tissues that perform a specific function within a living organism
    ) is washed irregularly, fecal residues remain).
  2. Tight-fitting underwear is used (the genitals sweat, the remains of fecal matter are displaced, ending up in the vagina).
  3. Wrong order of washing (the anus is washed first, then the genitals are washed).
  4. Anal intercourse with a man whose sperm has an intestinal infection.

Inflammation of the female genital organs, due to the action of the stick, lasts a long time and is difficult to treat.

Often a process of inflammation occurs in the intestines, but the symptoms appear unnoticed: the woman considers herself healthy, the chronic infection does not show itself.

A stressful situation is a signal for the manifestation of inflammation. Exacerbations of the disease are associated with wearing Escherich's wand.

Escherichia coli in men

E. coli in men affects the genitals and serves as a source of intestinal inflammation. Within 10 days, pathogenic bacteria pass on their own.

Inflammatory processes affecting the genitourinary organs change sexual and urinary functions.

The reason is the penetration of the stick into the urethra: acute urethritis occurs, the symptoms disappear after a few days, disease ( this is a condition of the body expressed in the disruption of its normal functioning, life expectancy, and its ability to maintain its homeostasis

) enters a protracted phase. Bacteria infect the urethra and cause complications in the genital and urinary organs.

The consequence is that the male sex suffers from prostatitis, orchitis, and epidymitis. More than half of the cases of chronic prostatitis in men aged 35 years and older are caused by Escherichia coli.

The revival of Escherich's bacillus will begin after hypothermia, stressful situations, which serve as a source of exacerbation of prostatitis. These infections are difficult to cure.

Having become the owner of a hemolyzing bacterium, a man infects women, becoming a source of bladder inflammation, kidney disease and vaginitis. Infected sperm enters the vagina, resulting in infection of the partner's genitals.

Rod (called a volumetric (physical) or flat (drawn) object of an elongated (according to one of the dimensions) shape, relatively small size) Escherich’s in pregnant women

In pregnant women, a urine test sometimes reveals E. coli, although the pathogenic microbe has not been observed in previous tests. The conclusion is that the woman has been carrying the bacteria for a long time; the manifestation is caused by a weakened immune system that is unable to fight the microbe.

The detected microorganism in the tests does not indicate a disease, but shows infection of the genitourinary organs ( An organ is a separate set of different types of cells and tissues that perform a specific function within a living organism

) a stick that can provoke an inflammatory process.

Gynecologists prescribe antibiotics to boost immunity and get rid of hemolyzing E. coli. This provokes the appearance of cystitis and pyelonephritis in the pregnant woman.

Colibacterium is unsafe for a newborn infected during childbirth. The baby suffers from blood poisoning, inflammation of the brain and ear.

The disease is treated in pregnant women with antibiotics:

  1. "Amoxiclav" - during the period of bearing a child.
  2. "Cefotaxime" - from the 2nd trimester until birth.
  3. "Ceftriaxone" - from 3 months of pregnancy until childbirth.
  4. "Furagin" - until the middle of the 3rd trimester of pregnancy.

The antibiotic is taken for a week, after which a urine test is taken. After a couple of months, repeat the procedure for the presence of bacteria ( also eubacteria (lat.

); if the analysis is negative, the disease is cured; if the analysis is positive, the treatment is repeated.

Intestinal bacteria in an infant

In a baby, E. coli in the feces is presented in two forms - hemolytic and lactose-negative.

If the test is positive in a child, you should not treat the infection with antibiotics. Before this, an external analysis needs to be carried out.

If the baby gains weight, has not lost his appetite, and does not have watery stools during bowel movements, no treatment will be required.

If there is a change in the general condition of the newborn, the absence of any development and the presence of watery stools, therapy is necessary.

Symptoms

In the adult population, an intestinal infection is similar to salmonellosis:

  1. The appearance of nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
  2. Temperature increase.
  3. Constipation, diarrhea.

The period of illness is 3-5 days.

Hemolyzed bacillus rarely causes intestinal complications. Complications: kidney disease, convulsive condition, hemorrhagic purpura, paresis, rigidity.

E. coli signals in babies

The children do not have diseases associated with hemolytic infectious bacilli; the child suffers from an intestinal illness.

Hemolyzing E. coli in children causes deterioration of the condition. The baby's body heat increases, regurgitation occurs and vomit comes out. Frequent trips to the toilet lead to diarrhea.

With a mild illness, the body temperature is elevated and does not reach 38 degrees, going to the toilet no more than 6 times. With an average course, the temperature rises to 39 degrees, stool - 12 times. During an exacerbation - loose stools up to 15 times a day, temperature - 38-39 degrees.

In a child with a weakened immune system, Escherich's bacillus penetrates the blood vessels, affects organs, causing purulent inflammation, meningitis, and sepsis.

The hemolyzing bacillus in infants provokes fever, migraine, and lack of appetite. Self-healing – after 5-10 days.

Treatment of hemolyzing Escherichia coli in adults

Treatment in adults begins with excluding signals of intoxication.

To eliminate the risk of dehydration, you should take rehydration medications. A gentle diet accompanied by fluid intake is recommended. Avoid fatty, salty, soda and alcohol.

Eat lean, cooked food or cooked in a water bath. Drink weak tea, fruit drinks, and drinks based on dried fruits. Take drugs that have regenerating properties - “Linex”, “Bifidumbacterin”, “Acipol”.

If hemolyzing Escherichia coli is found in the urine of adults, this is bacteriuria. Therapy for the disease includes taking antibiotics, uroseptics, and dietary supplements that strengthen the patient’s immunity and prevent the development of an infectious disease.

If Escherich's bacillus is found in the genitourinary organs, start taking antibiotics, observe hygiene rules and temporarily refrain from sexual intercourse.

Detected colibacteria in pregnant women and babies is treated with probiotics and viruses that infect the bacteria. If unsuccessful, take antibiotics.

Increased levels of pathogenic bacteria are treated with the use of prebiotics and probiotics. These medications accelerate the regeneration of intestinal microflora.

"Bifitrilak"

The drug contains a mixture of antioxidants, a prebiotic, natural sugars, micro- and macroelements, a natural mineral sorbent and antimicrobial natural substances. It is a brown powder with shiny inclusions that have a pearlescent sheen. It has no taste or smell. This is a pure, natural product with prebiotic, probiotic and sorbent properties.

How to use Linux.

Linux for a cat is something alien. She won't just use it like that. Especially several times a day. Typically, the prescribed treatment includes the frequency of administration - 2-3 times a day, one capsule. Duration – 2 weeks.

Linex can be given using different methods and tricks. For example :

  • Simply hold the cat, preferably with two people, and push the capsule down its throat. And then pour some water in there. You need to make sure that the cat does not spit out or regurgitate this portion of Linex.
  • A Linex tablet can be crushed to a powder and added to your pet’s food. This is how it is more humane and effective to treat a cat with Linex.
  • Dissolve Linex in water and give it to your cat to drink or add this solution to its food.

Pet owners may experience unpleasant situations when the animal begins to suffer from diarrhea. This brings great discomfort to the cat himself too.

The probiotic for cats “Enterol” is used by adding it to drink (water, milk). To obtain the maximum effect, the drug is given to the animal not immediately after feeding, but after about two hours. You should know that this probiotic contains living cells, so adding it to drinks with a temperature below fifty degrees is not recommended.

The daily dose for an adult animal is one sachet per day. The dose can be divided into two doses - morning and evening. For kittens, the dosage is halved.

How to give it to a cat?


The medicine can be pre-diluted in water and given to the animal along with food.
Despite the safety of the probiotic, it can be given to a cat only as prescribed by a veterinarian, who will verify the advisability of using such a medication and select effective dosages. Typically, Linex is prescribed 1 capsule 2-3 times a day. The duration of medication especially depends on the severity of the pet’s condition, but on average treatment lasts about 2 weeks. For a small kitten, your veterinarian may change the dosage. You can give Linex to your purr in various ways:

  1. Place the capsule down the throat, holding the cat tightly, and add a small amount of water. After making sure that the tablet is swallowed, you can let the fluffy go.
  2. Grind the tablet to a powder and mix with your favorite food.
  3. Dissolve the probiotic in water and add the resulting mixture to food.

Feedback from cat owners

Valentina. I buy Zoonorm for my cat. For health reasons, we often have to give him antibiotics, and in order to relieve the animal of diarrhea and other digestive troubles, this remedy is ideal. In addition, the cost is also pleasing; finding affordable medications in veterinary pharmacies is not so easy.

Zinaida. I choose Enterol for my cats. My preference is based not only on the high quality of this drug, but also on the fact that it can also be used for people. The result is significant savings; in addition, this composition has a wide spectrum of action and is capable of destroying many types of bacteria.

Nikolai. I don’t like to be particularly clever and spend extra money in veterinary pharmacies. I have heard from many experts that most probiotics for humans are also great for cats. Therefore, I buy inexpensive medicines from “human” pharmacies, the effect of which is no worse.

We have presented you with just a few probiotics for cats. The medications we have listed receive varying reviews from pet owners. “Enterol” is recognized as the most effective, and the improvement in the condition is noticeable already on the second day of use. Next in terms of effectiveness is Viyo, however, the owners say that the first time cats refuse to drink this drink on their own, they have to give it using a syringe. But then, the animals happily drink it on their own in the morning.

All cat owners agree that probiotics should only be used on the recommendation of a veterinarian. He will prescribe your pet the most effective drug for him.

Folk remedies for diarrhea

Crushed oak bark is a proven remedy against diarrhea. The product is prepared in the simplest way: for a standard glass size (250 ml) you need to take 1 tablespoon of crushed oak bark. Bring the water to a boil, add chopped oak and wait until the mixture boils again. After boiling, remove from heat and let cool, strain through a sieve. Give the animal on an empty stomach no more than 1 tablespoon 2 times a day (you can use the same syringe). Treatment lasts 1-2 days, but no longer.

Pharmacological properties

The medicinal properties of zoonorm are determined by bifidobacteria on activated carbon particles, which are microcolonies. The activity of this drug is determined by the ability of microcolonies to adhere to the mucous membrane of the animal’s gastrointestinal tract and retain healing properties when passing through the aggressive environment of the small intestine and stomach.

Lactose filler has a beneficial effect on the growth of bifidobacteria. The drug "Zoonorm" actively fights opportunistic and pathogenic microorganisms. In the shortest possible time, it normalizes the intestinal microflora and activates digestion.

“Zoonorm” promotes the complete synthesis of B vitamins, the absorption of calcium, and has an immunomodulatory and antitoxic effect. The drug is given to cats and kittens in 5–10 doses. The duration of treatment is determined by the veterinarian.

The composition FOSim, which is used in Viyo, guarantees the absorption of active components - inulin and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) in the intestines. An excellent nutritious drink increases the number of beneficial bacteria that strengthen the animal’s natural defenses. Fructo-oligosaccharide fibers, as well as inulin from FOSim, are not processed in the stomach.
