>[How about trying Proglycem now? BIG] Good point, Bill. In this case I think the ferret is already on Diazoxide/Proglycem, but I might be wrong; there have been several ferrets recently in similar situations. For those who have ferrets who are not on it and need to be careful about how much is purchased at once: For the Diazoxide, just order it from one of the compounding pharmacies in a smaller quantity. Many, like the one we use here in NJ, ship, and most have 800 numbers so you can ask those sorts of questions easily. Diazoxide can go up to 30 mg/kg of the ferret's weight twice a day.
