Sorry for the delay in posting the meds used to treat my White's for some parasite that looked as if it may have been attacking neurologically. My frog was walking in circles and had a head tilt. No one really new what it was but I found a really great exotic vet here in Houston. He treated the "common" worms/parasites with (I believe) an oral med but for the head tilt he determined that soaks would be better. He was rx'd Amikacin #50. Placing 0.2ml in 1 qt. water for 1 hr soak x 14 days. I did the trick. Lumpy is fine now and the head tilt is practically gone. He even walks normally now and has no problem with coordination. I hope this helps!!!
