Water ratio for Metronidazole Flagyl Powder

[Foschi Exotic Serpents]

Are you planning ahead to treat problems?

Doesnt really matter how much water you used, as long as you get the dosage right, and you can get it down the throat usually via catheter.

If thats the right dosage, itd be 50-100 mg/kg every day for 7 days

Yes, this is something I would like to know for the future.
I figured the mg would be the amount of powder but would it be made more watery or more like paste? I imagine giardia parasites would be the only thing it would be used for. This is the biggest cause of runny feces or loss of appetite. I would like to have some on hand if its ever needed but I was unsure of the proper preparation. All the info I have found is vague.

Another thing that bothers me is how most dosages for medications are measured in kg. We weigh our animals in grams. I wish there was a site with more detailed information for reptiles in these cases.
