Candy - weightloss

Candy has had soft poop since she came in - or shortly after. Soft and tear drop shaped, with little divots in the poop - other than that she seems to be doing pretty well. The vet saw yeast under the microscope this morning, so I'm starting her on nystatin suspension. (I also posted that Heddwyn also has yeast, so he's going back on the nystatin also).
But I can't remember the dosage for nystatin!

Thanks Becky!
I talked to my vet, and although the other vet has used fluconazole, we're going to go with the nystatin simply because we know it's very safe.
I thought I'd dosed Heddwyn twice daily before. The dog or cat dosage lists it as being at least 3 times a day in Plumbs. Hmm.

Candy had nystatin for 2 weeks to clear up the yeast, but her poop was so soft I started her on Flagyl. After 2 doses she finally had normal poop.
And she's gaining weight - finally she's up over 2 pounds, and she has a little belly!
She feels like a normal pig now, and she adores her critical care.

I'm so glad she's gaining weight. I bet her little belly is really cute.
