Panacur is a wormer that is used in just about everything. Best to take your animal to the vet though! Two rounds of Panacur two weeks apart and your boa should be clean. Hope this helps.

From what I understand Panacur is relatively harmless and hard to overdose. Correct?

the answer is no. Roundworms must have an intermediate host to complete their life cycle and cannot be transmitted directly from one snake to another.
