Flagyl is a lot more powerful than Tylan, and for my money, less
effective with more side effects. Actually, I've never known Tylan to
have any side effects. For a little dog, under 20 lbs., just a dab on
the tongue will stop diarrhea. Flagyl takes a lot larger dose and
usually more than one dose.
Tylan has to be effective. Over the years I've found that the
medicines developed for livestock are much more efficient than anything
developed for humans or dogs, and much, much less expensive. I always
figured that farmers couldn't afford to fool around with something that
didn't work...after all, they're breeding for our tables. Dogs are
"just pets," and we can pay thru the nose for meds for them...the
farmers can't! If a baby pig or a calf starts to scour, it can
die...that's a big loss. No fooling around with them. Not so with dogs
and humans...
Of course, that's my take on it...watch my buddy Chuck shoot down
that theory!
