Your cat’s increased fatigue since starting Roanax antibiotics can be a common side effect. However, it's always important to monitor their behavior for any additional changes or signs of distress.
- Fatigue is a known side effect of some antibiotics.
- Monitor for any additional symptoms or changes.
- Consult with a vet if behavior does not improve or worsens.
Antibiotics like Roanax can sometimes cause your cat to feel more tired than usual, as their body is working hard to fight off the infection. It’s important to ensure your cat is eating, drinking, and using the litter box well during this time. If fatigue is the only symptom, it may likely pass as the body adjusts to the medication. However, if your cat starts showing other concerning symptoms, it's best to contact a vet.
