To Cindy Sooy concerning the dosage of Benadryl in the ferret - Bendaryl is a pretty safe drug - you have a wide range of safety - too much will only make a ferret sleep it off - the dsage is 1-2mg/lb depending on the circumstances. I would go about 1ml/lb for a vaccine reactor, and the higher dose to treat an ongoing reaction, bee sting, etc.... Bruce Williams, DVM [log in to unmask] OR [log in to unmask] P.S. Sorry about the typo - its Benadryl.....
