Antibiotics for Pet Birds and Fish

I wasn't sure where to put this.
I came across this today. Looks like it may make it more difficult to get antibiotics.
What do you think?

That could be a problem for some of us. Thanks for sharing.

I just saw this myself. I had to read it 3 times. Couldn't believe it.

I'm surprised they've been getting away with it for so long.

 

[NanaK]

Me too. I've was surprised they were not pulled when they stopped all the others.

I suppose I'll be looking into natural options. Really don't know where to start. Right now everyone is healthy.

I suppose I will stock up, lol.

I wondered when the end to this would come. It seemed sort of odd we could just buy 250 or 500 mg of Amoxicillin and as much as we wanted. I bought a bottle of AquaMox a few weeks ago from Chewy as I had a hen I was getting worried about.

I wonder if we can freeze it to prolong its shelf life.

I don't know. I have fishpen and aquamox. Unopened. I wish I knew best way to store and how long after it expires it would still effective.
