Snuffles .... antibiotic Dosage?

snuffles is treated with Cipro, usually a compounding pharmacy makes a liquid that you admin with a needleless syringe. It's fatal to rabbits as they can't clear their sinuses. I'm so sorry. I went through what you are doing and even though he didn't seem very ill, I'd had him 8 yrs, he was sick. so, I left him with the vet. Antibiotic had to be given 2-3 times daily to maintain blood levels. Go to houserabbitsociety.com here in Denver. they talk about rabbit illnesses I believe. I think it's contagious to other rabbits too. It's distressful to the rabbit and breathing. poor little guys. I have just one rabbit now, he's up off the ground, but, he's not fixed and I know he needs a fixed female, but I'm not up to more bunnies. I'm sorry about your bunny. The med can be expensive. have a talk with your vet , please, as it can get costly and then it's futile, but you tried. Are you sure this is the diagnosis?
