I am so very sick right now about what just happened!! My little girl has been given Bactrim (trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole) for some mouth irritation. Just finished her critical care feed and went to give her the antibiotic- the dose seemed like a lot for such a small creature! I slowed down giving it to her because she acted like she was getting full… OMG. The dose of zero point zero one!! And I gave 0.4!!! I stopped when I had given about 0.3mL. I feel just sick with worry- what is going to happen to her!?!? There’s no exotic emergency vet to call right now!! Did I just destroy her little kidneys!?!? I don’t know what to do!!

There's nothing much you can do because it's already done However, these are very hardy creatures. Call the vet (I'm assuming it was prescribed by a vet) and let them know what happened in case there's something you need to do
