Your cat's increased lethargy after starting Orbax for a UTI is concerning and may suggest an adverse reaction to the medication.
- Contact your veterinarian to discuss the symptoms.
- Lethargy is not a typical side effect of Orbax.
- Prompt action can ensure your cat's safety and well-being.
It's important to monitor any changes in your cat's behavior after starting a new medication. While some mild side effects are normal, significant lethargy can indicate an adverse reaction or an underlying issue that needs to be addressed. We recommend reaching out to your vet to discuss your cat's symptoms and determine the best course of action.
