EvilPixie Mar 2023 1:46pm, 28 Mar 2023 41,784 posts	0 EvilPixie I wasn’t given a choice! The tablets are penicillin and Mr Pix is allergic and info says he should avoid touching so the tablets are all mine! They are twice a day the antibiotics are once a day Not sure if it’s easier to do tablets then hope the liquid antibiotics will wash down or do 3 sessions! His eyes look ok but I have drops for them too twice a day I haven’t done anything yet as I thought I would let him settle in first poor lad
