looking to the reptile dss dosage, my friend who used to see herps cant remember the dose and i cant find it, looked on VIN and everyone said metamucle, but were dealing with obstipation (sp?) not constipation, so im not sure i want to go thsat way, this is for the iggy i posted rads on a while ago, we were ready to put her down and she pooped! did run a fecal on the poop that she gave us, shes got parasites and has been treated, just want to give her a little more time if we can.
going to call a friend i know has maders book (havent bought it yet) but hes an emergency DVM, and works crazy hrs, dont want to wake him....

Dioctyl Na sulfosuccinate?
1-5mg/kg PO in most species /constipation; use 1:20dilution.
