I don't have any intention of trying to administer these drugs...but I would like to know what diseases they treat and what effects they may have on a boa. The drugs I have learned a little about are Tylan, Baytril, Amakacin, Trimethoprim sulfa, and Fortaz.

Which drugs seem to work the best in your experience? Which seems to have less than satisfactory results? What are some drugs that a novice or ill-advised vet might use that should bring about warning signs that my boa may be in trouble (seriously, there's one vet in a nearby town that is known for killing more reptiles than saving)?
