Veterinary guidance first: Eye and respiratory signs in birds have many causes. These tablets are not a substitute for a diagnosis or the label on the pack you receive.
Psittacosis / ornithosis can affect people: Handle sick birds carefully and talk to a physician if you have flu-like symptoms after bird contact.
What Medpet says it is for
Medpet’s official page: “For the treatment of Ornithosis (‘One Eye Cold’) and respiratory conditions caused by Doxycycline sensitive organisms in pigeons and soft bill birds.” Medpet also notes the tablet is uniquely coated with the “Medpet cellulose method,” which prevents vomiting and preserves doxycycline potency, and that the tablet shape makes it the ideal treatment for single birds.
The official pack is marked “FOR PIGEON USE ONLY” and also reads: “FOR THE TREATMENT OF RESPIRATORY CONDITIONS CAUSED BY OXYTETRACYCLINE SENSITIVE ORGANISMS IN PIGEONS AND CAGE BIRDS.” Doxycycline 7.5 mg per tablet is the active on Medpet’s product page. Always go by the pack in your hand.
