My brearded dragon is being treated for parasites with ponazuril. She is supposed to get .14ml everyday for 28 days. I apparently can't read and thought it said 1.4ml. So ended up giving her .8ml before i realized my huge mistake. She is 6 months old and 308grams. Did i just kill my dragon by overdosing her?
She's my first one, so im still learning as i go.

Oh dear, I would call your vet asap on this. Ponazuril is not that harsh but that is a rather large overdose.

Yes do give the vet a call. I would stop with the meds at the moment too. At first I would have offered some activated charcoal to prevent some of the meds from being absorbed but by now the best bet might be to offer plenty of water to help flush it through the system. I'd double check with your vet first though.

Hello,

I would try to get some activated charcoal, or get some parsley, cilantro, basil, oregano & mint
& mix it together to help detox her system also.
Let us know how she is doing!
