Tylosin/Tylan for Cats with IBS

[Shrimp's Mom]

Has anyone ever used that for their cat with IBS? Is it a better option to Budesonide and Prednisolone? Or even metronidazole? Or is it used in conjunction with steroids since it is an antibiotic. It looks like it is an off-label medication.

Hi. Sorry no one has responded to your post yet. While you wait to hear from some of the members, maybe you would like to peruse through previous posts about this med. I did a search on each name, so there is a bit of redundancy in these two links.

Hi. Tylan is an antibiotic whereas Prednisolone is a steroid.
I think that vets used to use Tylan for IBD more and don’t use it as much now. Unless of course something is found in the fecal that would warrant it.
