A vet in Mexico told us that Trimetoprima Sulfametoxazol can be used in place of Albon to get rid of Coccidia in Cats. Is this true and what would the dosage be? ## I'm sorry, but I don't have any information on this, out information pertains to the use of medication in humans, not animals. Have you tried asking your regular veterinarian? Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim is an antibiotic, so it is not completely the same as the Albon, so I would suggest getting a second opinion to make sure you are getting proper treatment for your pet.

I was prescribed Secnidal 500 @ 1 every 12 hrs for 4 days to kill Blastocystis Hominis Parasites. I was told I would experience bad cramps, nauseous and be very sick. I am on my last pill and have no such feelings. After "resting" 7 days, I am to take Trimetoprima 80mg & Sulfametoxazol 400mg for 7 days. Do you have any recommendations if this will purge my system of this parasite. Should I be concerned that I feel no pain?? ## Hello, Der! How are you?
