OT- Pet Meds
Posted via Supernews, http://www.supernews.com
Newsgroups: misc.survivalism Ok, as mentioned this has been discussed several times on the list but I thought I would put the listings for Lambriers fish meds together in case any one else wants a full reference on what each one is good for. All of Lambriers fish meds come in 250 mg capsules or tablets which is the standard human dose. The drugs are all human grade. Burns vet supply sells only to vets. Lambriers is the cheapest place to buy fish meds The availability of fish meds without a prescrip is going to be done away with shortly if my souces at the FDA are being honest. Lambriers fish meds are pg 9 of their latest cat. and I am listing the meds and info in the order lambrier has them. There are some non fish meds listed and if anyone is interested I have a more complete list I can post. LA USE THIS INFO AT YOUR OWN RISK CAUSE I AIN"T A DOC METRONIDAZOLE (Flagyl®) kills or prevents the growth of certain bacteria and protozoa (single cell animals). Metronidazole treats infections of the skin, central nervous system, bones and joints, respiratory tract, abdomen, gynecologic and vaginal infections (including trichomoniasis), urinary tract and intestinal infections (including dysentery). Standard dosages: Trichomoniasis is 250 mgs 3xday for seven days acute ambeic dysentery is 750 mgs 3xday for 5 to 10 days ambeic liver abcess same as dysentery anaerobic bacterial infections 7.5 mgs per every 2.2 lbs every six hours Do not drink booze when taking this and for 24 hours after last dose as the combination can cause cramps, nausea, vomiting headaches etc. There is no info about the safety if taken while pregnant so don't unless it is a crisis.

Avoid Ceclor or cephlasporin as well. Penicillin I would skip this one entirely. If penicillin is something you feel you need go to your farm supply store and get Procaine G. Procaine is a anaglesic that keeps the injection from stinging like fire when the penicillin goes in.
