  1. Time for a vet visit, so head back to the vet that prescribed the antibiotic the first time (at least I hope a vet advised you as to the proper drug and dosage), and ask for a nasal culture to be done and an "ID/ sensitivity" test.  That will identify exactly which bacteria is causing the problem and what antibiotic will treat it most effectively.  Many vets assume that pretty much all sneezing bunnies have a pasteurella infection, but that's just not the case, many have other types of bacterial infections which respond to different drugs, that can be identified using that test.  Then follow through with the whole course of drugs.  Even if the bunny seems better, finish out the whole period of time the vet said to, or it will just come back.  


  2. Respiratory issues are one that needs to always be addressed by a veterinarian as there is no over the counter cure. Call your veterinarian that prescribed the antibiotic and tell him/her what is going on.
