: Hi Luke. I have extensive knowledge working with liquid D3 and I will do my best to answer your questions.

: Liquid D3, like Solar Drops, are not a replacement for UV exposure despite what the bottle claims. Infact, the liquid D3 doesn't work on every iguana. When it is used under the circumstances I will talk about below, a UV light still must be used. The drops do not reduce the amount of timer per day that an iguana needs UV exposure.

: The liquid D3 CAN and WILL kill your iguana if not dosed properly and for that reason we don not suggest its use unless you have a very sick iguana and are under the guidence of a vet. In the case of an iguana suffering from MDB, the drops can sometimes accelerate the process of enableing the iguana to "heal".

: I would strongly advise against the use of these drops on a regular basis. Even with a sick iguana we use them for no more than a six week period.
