>>I understand that, but I have no vets near me that will treat amphibians. I understand the risks, I just want to know if it is given in the same doses as you would a reptile.

Again, no one can legally give you that information over the internet.



There should be little problem for your vet to call up and consult with a vet that does treat amphibians to get the information they need to help treat your animal. I know this from experience because my vet (on east coast) consulted with another vet (in Texas) on the phone over the course of a few days on how to go about properly conducting surgery on our prairie dog (from work) to remove a cancerous tumor since she had no experience at all with prairie dogs.



If your vet doesn't want to be bothered with phone calls, then there is the possibility they may already belong to an online veterinary community website. These are websites where only vets are members and they can consult with each other through message boards and chats. Many vets across the country are members of the well known Veterinary Information Network (http://www.vin.com)
