But, as a practical matter, this has been a long-standing topic among preppers, where the reaction has been to pragmatically shrug one’s shoulders and stockpile veterinary formulations when the human versions are unavailable. Ciprofloxacin is the classic example. I’d be willing to bet that every serious prepper has a stock of veterinary Cipro in his medical stash, along with a means to weigh, and dosing information. It takes a bit of preparation and research, but it’s not rocket science.
