Really bad parasites

[Webley]

Does anyone here have any experience with getting rid of a parasite called Entamoeba? four of my snakes probably have it. I say probably because only is verified to have it, and the test for it is expensive. The other three only have it because of a lapse in quarantine, and one shows symptoms. It is a parasite that can and eventually does kill. The medications are really expensive and I want to make sure I get rid of it the first time around! The meds are a "gut cleaner." The vet said it might stop them from feeding. Of the four of them three are girls in between 650-900 grams. My male is at 750. P.S. the medication is called Paromomycin.

Has anyone here dealt with the particular parasite? I'm looking for some experienced expertise. Also, does anyone have experience with the use and effect of Paromoycin?

Good questions, I would also like to know before/if it happens to my collection.

Unfortunately (or fortunately I suppose) I have not dealt with it in snakes, but I had a human friend take it for amoebiasis. She got a combination of Paro and Metronidazole, I just asked her and she said the description of "gut cleaner" is pretty accurate.

Since its a protozoan unfortunetely its going to be incredibly hard to get rid of. I'd ask your vet about http://www.pangeareptile.com/store/m...le-flagyl.html. When Repashy was making it, it was the go to for fighting entamoeba.
