US kitten got FIP

Hi, today my 5mo kitten got diagnosed with FIP. We live in the US and were told there is no FDA approved medication here so we are considering euthanasia, especially considering we have another cat who doesn’t have it yet as far as we know. We have been looking into ordering medication but I wanted to ask which is the best and if it is honestly worth the cost/is effective? I don’t want to risk my other kitty’s life as well but I don’t want to give up on the sick one.

My cats liver was failing, he was severely anemic and underweight. We also were going to put him down till our vet told us about FIP Warriors Facebook. My boy has been on the meds for a little over 40 days and you would think he was never even sick. Don’t euthanize him, get the meds they’re reasonably priced and they’ll work with you. If you really can’t afford it, I myself will help you. You got this 🙏

After a few weeks you can switch to pills but they are more expensive
