    I would not use uvb as it can harm the frog, we actually just had a discussion on wether our not to use uvb for frogs and since pacmans are more nocturnal I wouldn't use uvb. I would keep supplementing, and do calcium every other day (correct me if i'm wrong).

    0.1.0 Psuedacris regilla
    0.1.0 Pseudacris regilla (r.i.p. Green Beauty)
    0.0.1 Bufo boreas boreas? (r.i.p. )
    0.0.4 Dendrobates tinctorius 'Powder Blue'

    Yes 5%uvb is used for treating MBD in combination with meds and proper diet if your vet warned you after seeing xrays it must be the case. And the frog can't be albino.

    However in order to get your more helpful advise i need to know more about the condition, see pic of the frog from top and front, know a bit of history, what was happening, how did it look, why you took him to a vet, what was prescribed.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
