Personally i would give her c/d antitoxin, a shot of b complex/b-12/thiamine, and a antibiotic
I use nuflor/tetradur/draxin together, thats what works for me.
Ivermectin as a whole is pretty safe even at high doses.
Have you seen her bowel movements?

I just gave her 1cc of Dex. Tried to give the b complex but she jumped and ran and I go the b complex everywhere but in her. Going to make a 2nd attempt at lunch. Her Bowel movement looks normal ( dark pellets). I also made her pee and it looks normal as well. See is not running a fever temp. 100.4 and 100.0

EHD in your area?
sometimes you assume that what you see is a result from one thing and it may not even be related.
Why did you decide to give her the ivermectin?

Have not seen any signs of EHD this year. I was going to move this fawn to a bigger fawn pen and wanted to worm her before I did. At lunch I did give her a 5oz. bottle just to get something in her. She did take it but not aggressive.
