Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I would assume that would be .05 ml per hundred grams of weight. Which would be the correct dosage, depending on results from a fecal swab or flotation.

I think the problem is that the bottle is listed for use in "multiple dragons" meaning there are no specific dosing instructions due to it not being intended for any particular dragon nor any particular weight.

i have never seen a rx label written that way if that is what it says. i cant see the last part of that 0.05ml per 100 grams of.... if it says weight, then obviously it would be legit. again, wasnt tryin to start anything. just seemed to me that they made the medication a lower concentration to give to a small reptile. just never, ever in my 14 years doing this, have seen a label written that way.

Very possibly, as that seems to be a low dose,(for multiple weight animals) which would be a "shotgun" treatment or "starter" treatment. Never the less, I don't see where it's "against" the vet, or who prescribed the doseage.

It says 0.05ml per 100 grams. The albon is a 5% suspension.
0.5ml would be 10 times the dose.
Point is, Ryan is right. It's not exactly legal for him to be doing the formulary for that. He can prescribe a dosage to a specific animal, not dish it out in bulk with generalized instructions.

a licensed veterinarian must provide proper dosing instructions to an animal for a non-over the counter medication. thats why it could be against the vet/prescriber. now that being said, who knows if he put the dose for each dragon in the medical record and gave ed copies, and that is just a generic rx label for all dragons

another thing to keep in mind, is that when small doses like that are involved to small animals, the slightest little bit of overdose, can damage an animal, and if owner doses each animal himself without a legal written prescription from a licensed vet, that vet that prescribed the initial medication written for only one dragon can be liable

just wanted to re-itarate, that if the left off part of that line says... weight, then that is a legal label.
