Fish Antibiotics

So me and the old lady came down with bronchitis. She went to urgent care and was given an antibiotic called azithromycin.

I didn't go to try an experiment. I am pleased to tell you guys that fish antibiotics work. I bought a bottle of Fish Mox. It's just plain Ciprofloxacin. The same thing you get at the pharmacy. I'm still alive after day 3 on it and the bronchitis is going away.

Read the reviews. Apparently I'm not the only one using it.

Here's one review.

Expensive, but worth it. Manufactured in USA, makes it more trustworthy. My "fish" had an infection in his throat. He was given this med for 15 days 2x a day. He is all better. His sore throat is gone.

I did this experiment to see if they really work like the preppers say that they do so I can stock up for the inevitable collapse. It's American made pure antibiotics. Just not FDA approved.

 

The fact you got antibiotics for bronchitis bothers me to no end. The number to harm is actually less than the number needed to treat.

 

I don't understand. For the simple minded fold folk please.

 

Be aware you might pop a tendon( like an Achilles tendon) from Cipro. Be very careful stretching, hiking working out for a few months. It is the drug of choice for weaponized anthrax though.

 

Giving antibiotics for bronchitis is actually more harmful than doing nothing. Bronchitis is often viral and self-limiting.

Also, as stated above. There’s a significant risk for tendon and ligament rupture as well as aortic aneurysm/dissection. The time to watch for tendon rupture is like 6 weeks post-cessation.

 

Throwing this out there as a PSA for those with sick fish. Fish Mox isn’t cipro it’s amoxicillin.

Thanks for taking one for the team, @Willjr75!

 

The whole thing sounds fishy to me. I am floundering in self doubt.

 

Ballistol. Works on everything.

 

Ive used them for oral abcesses i used to get when a tooth would throw a piston?!

they worked good.

 

Shelf life?

 

Don't know. I would guess the same as any antibiotics. About 2 to 3 years based on Google searches.

 

Bronchidis, after three days, if you weren't feeling better you didn't have bronchitis, guppie food or not.

I've heard that can be extended if kept in the fridge. Just rumor, no I don't care enough to confirm.
