    When I look at F10 on amazon it says frequently purchased with a Zoo Med fogger/humidifier.

    I'm assuming you have to dilute the F10 and not use it straight. If you dilute it what's the ratio?

    I just watched a U-Tube video mixed the F10 3ml to one liter of water and was used in a fogger/humidifier.

    I made my nebulizer with the nebulizer my son used when he was having asthma attacks. Can I use it in a nebulizer or do I need a fogger. If I can use it in the nebulizer what's the mixture?

    This is my nebulizer.

    Re: RI Question Update W/culture test results
    The two bacterias found in the culture test were Pseudomonas Alcaligenes (heavy growth) and Enterococcus Species also heavy growth.

    I believe the doctor said the Pseudomonas was the nasty one that's resistant to most antibiotics.

    He prescribed Ciprofloxacin 4ml every two days. I prefer an injectable but the one that would work on this bacteria can cause blindness and liver failure and I felt it wasn't worth the risk.


    Can you put F10 in a nebulizer and if so what's the mixture ratio?

    Now that I have the right antibiotic my guy is progressively getting better.

    No more weezing or gurgling sounds, I still have a long way to with the antibiotics approximately 3 months but lessoned learned.

    Don't be cheap and pay for the culture up front it's much cheaper in the long run and a lot less stress on the noodle.

    The ONLY F10 you can us is F10SC. Grab the large bottle 200ML (6.8oz) and you can use it to clean after. This way your not paying crazy money for a 1/2 water spray bottle from RBI. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ae55a9b01a.png

    Ciprofloxacin
    Hey kind regards..... im just reading up on this forum cuz I searched Ciprofloxacin ... my snake was just prescribed Ciprofloxacin eye drops but the vet told me it wasn't an antibiotic.... is that incorrect is
    Ciprofloxacin an antibiotic? In any case hope to hear this snake recovered from the resistant respiratory attack.
