See I have been so nervous I forgot about the shot they gave her. so I called my vet and I asked about everything, and yes you are right, the Bautril is an antibiotic for her ear because it seemed to be hurting as well her eye is red.baytril is kinda a do all antibiotic for all kinds of infections and is usually pretty effective (not sure about on rabbits though). it will not however kill worms that i know of lol. you need something like revolution which is great for worms, mites, ticks, fleas, etc. or some other dewormer from a vet (the over the counter ones do not work and you will be spending more money in the long run and still end up back at the vet).
and metacam is an inflamation drug (just like ibuprophen for people only a little stronger). it's only used to take down swelling and once again as far as i know will do nothing against the worms.

This should be available from your vet or for livestock.

The raccoon roundworm looks very different from that worm you posted. However, it can cause head tilt, but I don't think there's a lot you can do if your bunny has raccoon roundworm. Tapeworm can be picked up from the grass, and that is what it looks like your bunny has, in addition to an inner ear infection.
