The tinytortoise website has dosage for the panacur liquid on it

I use kusuri tortoise wormer plus, i found that very good.

After this dose I will wait a month before doing anything to give her a chance to get her appetite back up.
I'm not sure if after the month I should re-treat with panacur or change brand? Maybe won't make a difference. Is there anything else that maybe the vet can do to de worm her?
Forgot to say, she gets meds shot down her throat with a syringe, I don't know if you class that as tube or not.

If she is retaining it via syringe it will get to the stomach

I would give her some gut cover after her final dose

If paracites are present she will need metronidazole or similar

Can you tell me the weight of this tortoise and the dose you've given ?

She is 400g and has been given 0.4ml of panacur 10% as recommended by the vet x
