: Con anyone give me this info my vet says 5 mil per KG .I think this dosage is to low . Thanks Dave

You do not say what the tortoise is being treated for, or the size of the tortoise.I wouldn't second guess your vet.Are you subscribed to the tortoise mailing lists? If not I would subscribe to them, this is the kind of question you can ask there. As I dont think any of us are qualified vetinarians here at the forum.There could be a reason your vet prescribed 5mg/kg, ask him to explain it to you.Or call other tort vets in your area for a second opinion, if you are not happy with the care your tort is recieving.I went through three vets , before finding one I am comfortable with.
Best of luck. I hope it's nothing too serious.
Terry.
