Please visit a vet clinic or scedule vet visit as post bite rabies vaccination has to be done. The wound must have got infected and would need to be cleaned and proper check up needs to be done to see the extent of injury. Treatment can be given accordingly after check up.

He's still unable to keep down food, water, or medicines. He's constantly vomiting, even after having Zofer through saline.

Is he still not eating?

He is eating. But he's being unable to keep it down. He's vomiting everything out

Then I think better take him to the vet as he might still need saline. Intravenous antibiotics might be needed as orally he is not able to keep it in.

He is getting saline twice a day ma'am. 500 ml each time.

Dr. Sharmila Rai
Okay then you have a talk with the vet you have visited about the antibiotic, tell them as he is not able to keep the food in.

We were unable to visit the vet ma'am. Our dog is too sick to travel and the government hospital we took him to is very far away.

So, we talked to a different doctor, should him all the prescriptions and told him about all the symptoms. He changed all the medicines and asked us to not give the anti rabies vaccine doses as of now. He asked us to get him a blood test done and show him the report.

The new doctor prescribed Dalacin- C 300 tablets and Sucrafil syrup and Rantac tablets. And asked us to discontinue giving him saline, and give him normal food, till we get his blood test done, and the doctor observes the report.

Dr. Sharmila Rai
I think its best to stick to that and do the blood test and show it to him.

So, we should stick to the new medicines ma'am? The doctor also asked to discontinue vaccinating him right now.

Dr. Sharmila Rai
Yes do the blood test as soon as possible
