You are right! It is terramycin!
No wonder the vet's assistant gave me a strange
look!
I'm taking tetracycline right now, which probably
caused me to get the names mixed up.
I know I have purchased it at a place that has
a vet clinic and a "farm store" over the counter,
and if you google terramycin, you get a link to
Drs. Foster and Smith and their terramycin appears
to be over the counter.
The farm store isn't close to me, so I called my vet
to see if he would just sell me something without having
to bring turtles in and he did. He helped me with the
first eye/ear infection, so he knows I've got experience
dealing with that.
He lanced this turtle's ear infection and I got the message
on my answering machine..."oh man, that was so cool.....the
pus just SHOT OUT!" Funniest message I've ever gotten, especially from a vet.
But, yeah, as far as I can tell, terramycin is over the counter.
