Medication

[prettypurplepenguin]

Hello need some pretty urgent help.

My beardie has just been to the vets today and the vet did a stool sample.

Turns out she is riddled with several different parasites 1 of which v.harmvery harmful.

He has given me 3 different drops that i have to give her by mouth but i have no idea at all how to do it!!
I have tried as many ways as i could think of (with water first) but she just wont play ball.

Its pretty urgent meds and i really need to give her them tomorrow.

Please help!!

Have you tried dripping the meds on her nose with a syringe/dropper. Usually they will lick it off their nose when done this way.
If she is stubborn about licking it off her nose you can try going in through the side of her mouth "gently" with the syringe.
Hope it works and you can get the meds in her. Let us know how she is doing.

Running out of options here will keep you posted, currently trying to contact vet but no luck as of yet.

Thanks again xxx

Mine is also on meds, but it is in powder form. I mix it up with a little baby food and water, which they normally take from the dropper quite willingly.
