I seem to recall reading a long time ago of some terrible abcesses that were displayed after the use of Baytril, but I have no idea what the particular details were on the dosing that was given. That would be a great help to know.

But anyway, what do you think of this particular regimen that is recommended in the book......"The Complete Boa Constrictor" p. 78 that has been said to have been used with good results?

"10 milligrams per kilogram body weight given intramuscularly for the first dose, then 5 milligrams per kilogram body weight given intramuscularly every 48-72 hrs... Administration of this product can be painful and cause tissue necrosis, sterile abcesses and skin discoloration. Large doses (greater than 1cc/ml) should be divided and given in 2-3 different sites to minimize tissue damage."

This seems to make good sense I am thinking

thanks........
