Get well Hazel. My friend had an awful experience with Cefa-drops some years back. One of the many she took from me "Theodore" was prescribed them, and I can't even begin to tell you what it did to him! After several days of the vets INSISTING the Cefa was fine, he started loosing hair in clumps, his skin thickened to the point,it looked like a dried up desert terrain, and the poor dear bled. And this was on only a few days of dosing! His skin has to be slathered in ointment to keep it from cracking. The vet got the hint after seeing him. What is Hazel on?
