red eyed tree frog tetracycline bath ratio?

[MissFroggyToes]

my ipod wont let me post pictures right now but my tree frog has a swollen nostril slightly oozing red. and slightly red bottom lip, my other has a red spot at the back corner of each eye. im a petcare specialist at petsmart and i usual can handle dosing and treating my self, but ive never used tc tetracyclin . im using NON PAINreliveing triple antibotic onintment 2 to 3 times a day , it doesnt look like it is spreading but i definitally know its a infection. i cleaned out the terrarium really really well. as well as keeping them hydrated and clean. i was told by the guy i origionally got them from that i can use a tetracycline bath/ eye dropper onto the wounds. (im trying to get a hold of baytril for a oral med it if gets worse.) i picked up T.C. tetracycline in the fish section. each packet contains 500mg. does anyone know how much i use for red eyed tree frogs, or the correct ratio of water to meds?

Here's a link that you may find useful. http://www.research.usf.edu/cm/docs/...Doses_ILAR.pdf

This is what it says about tetracycline: Tetracycline 50 mg/kg PO q 12 hr; 10 μg/ml in 0.5% saline bath for 24 hr

If you know how to do dosage calculations, you should be able to get the correct concentration.

I've read that sometimes discharge from the nostrils can be an indication of lungworms, so you may want to get them checked out for that.

Good luck.
