Default reptaid?

Just curious about this product and wondered if anyone has tried this before? If so can you please describe your experience, is it as 'unbelievable' as it claims?? also, how long do you use it for in order to clear the symptoms??

Do you mind telling a bit more, e.g. what was the problem...how did it improve the situation?? Did you see any side effects?

We use it for snakes that have had very bad sheds, burns, cuts, toes nipped, tails moped, all sorts of injuries really and it works awesome! Never had any side effects at all...my red tail boa is very sensitive and allergic to lots of things, when his heat bulb shattered and he got cut really bad we used it and it was brill...what is it your thinking of using it for?

well I just heard about many claims that it's a 'magical' drug and can be used in so many situations...so I want to find out more about it...Most cases have been using to treat snakes/chameleons, so I wondered if any tort users have any experience with it.

so it says it can be used to treat parasites/worms, so does that mean I could use this instead of panacur for routine treatment??

I am, actually, quite fascinated by how people making reptaid claimed it can help fight viral/bacterial and other infections, while on the other hand, the product has not been evaluated by FDA, and I quote '...This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease'. Isn't it a bit self-contradictory?
