Answer
You can also add to the antibiotics, 1/8 tsp Robutussin DM cough syrup twice a day, and a dab of vicks vapor rub on its nose up to 4 times a day. It also helps if the pig is placed in the bathroom during showers, a humidifier would also help. Just avoid any drafts or change in tempurature, and throughly bleach the cage when he gets better. I also have some more information on my website under upper respiratory infections, which may help, http://woopets.bravehost.com . Let me know if you have any more questions.
