[QUOTE="mactac, post: 2036433, member: 117478"] Our Bearded dragon is having a really rough time and has been somewhat dehydrated. The vet gave us lactated ringers and syringes, however the injections are causing a LOT of stress to the beardie. The stress might actually be making her worse. We are feeding her via syringe, and thought that maybe we can replace the water in the food with lactated ringers instead of stressing her out so much all the time. We will still inject the fluid (since it's the best way to get it into her), but not as often. I see some references to using it orally, and it does not seem to contain anything that would be problematic in the digestive system, but I do not know reptiles well enough to know for sure. Can anyone tell me if it's safe to give lactated ringers orally? [/QUOTE]
