Be careful, albon is a pretty powerful drug and it is very hard on the animal's system. It should only be used when a diagnosis of coccidia has been made. Albon should never be used as a "shotgun" treatment, only with a diagnosis of coccidia from a fecal float. Otherwise you can do more harm than good, honestly. Coccidia symptoms can be very similar to the symptoms of pinworm and other parasite infestations that can be treated very easily with panacur. I hope your gecko gets better, but please rethink using albino if you do not have a diagnosis from a fecal float.
