Mouse with Respiratory Infection

21 15:37:38

Question
I have a mouse with a respiratory infection. I had read that Tetracycline works. Where can I get that? I hope you can help me. If any other medicine works please tell me. Thank you.

Answer
Dear Stephanie,

Tetracycline is the easiest way to deal with a respiratory infection.  You will find it in the FISH section of  pet store, or in an aquarium store.  

This archive post explains a bit about how to use it:

Good health to your mouse.
