No, but I have anti-inflammatories from before, for my other hamster - I was thinking of giving it to her but I googled antibiotics + anti inflammatories and it says generally they shouldn't be combined.Did the vet prescribe pain relief?

I tried but he's not available today....sadly.Google is unreliable and i would advise you to contact your vet.
Maybe you could phone or email your vet and ask the question.

If there's another vet that's an exotic in your area it may be an idea to ring them. If not then phone the current vet and say you think she's in pain and should you give the metacam. You'll need the right dosage. But tbh I would probably give some anyway if you have some because it sounds like a bit of an emergency and it may help her a lot. Having pain relief may improve her appetite and she'll feel less stressed as well.
Albon is the antibiotic. I called the vet but the primary vet was gone for the day. Lady who answered the phone said it's okay to give them together, I don't know her mastery in the business but she said it without hesitation like she knew for certain. I hope she's not wrong, I gave her 1 dose of Meloxicam because she seems to be in a great deal of pain.You should check with the vet really. All I can say is Baytril and Metacam are prescribed together a lot. And you need the right dose for the Metacam. Which antibiotic is it?
Thank you, I will miss her sorely, she was a special little gal :'(I’m so very sorry Tosan, you did everything you could for her, I think we all tend to think if we’d done this or that sooner or differently it may not have happened but you did your best for her & that’s all you can do, sometimes an infection like this is just too much for their tiny bodies to overcome. I’m sure she knew she was loved & how much you cared for her.
