Hello guys,my two years old turtle has a parasites and bacteria infection in GI tract. My vet for turtle has prescribe panacur 4 times every 15days and metronidazolo for 7 days. Is it good?

Well, the Panacur is to kill parasites, and the metronidazolo treats bacterial infections. So I would have to assume the vet knows what he's doing. Normally, I give Panacur once, then again in 10 days to kill off any eggs that hatched since
the first dose.

Welcome to the Forum. What kind of turtle do you have?
