    Baytril is vet only. You can pick it uP at herp shows sometimes. But, the 2.27% small vial is around $60.
    Tylan works also, but I personally only use it on larger animals, is boas and burms. You have to use so much of it, it tends to leave "soft spots" that take forever to heal up. I tried it on rabbits once, was not happy with the results, and ended up following up with fortaz, which is also expensive like baytril.
    Overall, baytril is the best "fix all" that I've found. so, I buy it from my vet and always keep it unhand. Fortaz, if I need it, I just buy as I need if the baytril didn't completely work. Usually a bad RI in a ball python.
    Tetracycline works, but is kind of old school. You can get it from farm stores in a pinch or pet stores(I carry it), but it's like OTC versus Dr prescribed.
    Bad thing about carrying oracyn/cyclines, I get shady "customers" asking for it to "cure a fish", or bird. When I ask what the symptoms are, they never know. Hmmm, shoulda kept it zipped up, now shouldn't ya? Of course I don't sell it to them, but it's always funny. Even had them call and flat out ask if I have it for them to use for an "infection".
