Acidophiliz+
by Pet Authority
Acidophiliz+
is a great way to reintroduce good bacteria into your reptile's
system. After a round of antibiotics or parasite medications,
the good bacteria has most likely been wiped out or at a very
low level. This is when opportunistic bacteria and fungi can take
hold, which can result in Yellow
Fungus Disease or bacterial infections. Acidophiliz can also
help with diarrhea and digestion problems.
Acidophiliz+
contains millions of live microorganisms (probiotics) that are
commonly found in yogurt and other probiotic supplements. Since
some animals have adverse reactions to dairy, we advise giving
this supplement instead of yogurt.
This
2 oz bottle contains enough Acidophiliz to dose several bearded
dragons for 2 - 3 months.
Average
dose: Give 0.1 - 0.2cc for every 100 grams of body weight.
Can give daily as a supplement to help boost energy and appetite
levels, or can give as often as needed.
Dose
for sick or recovering reptiles (or sugar gliders): Give 0.2
- 0.4cc for every 100 grams of body weight, 1 - 2 times a day
for up to 2 weeks, as needed.
Note:
We recently switched from a glass bottle with a glass dropper
to a plastic bottle and cap (no dropper). We found that someone
actually used the glass dropper to feed directly to their reptile!
This resulted in an injured reptile. We aim to prevent these kind
of injuries, so we are no longer offering the glass droppers.
Instead, you will receive a plastic bottle that is capped, and
a 1cc syringe (no needle) for dosing the Acidophiliz+.
