After completing Albon treatment for coccidia, it's not uncommon for some symptoms to persist, although improvement is expected. Monitoring your kitten's health is crucial to ensure recovery is on track.
- Observe any lingering symptoms such as diarrhea closely.
- Ensure your kitten is hydrated and eating well.
- Contact your vet if symptoms persist or worsen.
Even after treatment, it might take some time for your kitten’s system to return to normal. If your kitten still experiences diarrhea but is active and otherwise normal, this might not be alarming. However, if the diarrhea persists or other symptoms develop, it's wise to reach out to your vet. They might recommend further testing or alternative treatments to fully resolve the issue.
