Roober, there's no fucking way those dosages are used in tablet form for fish and I'm not sure what the purpose would be anyway. Those are adult human dosages and would be too much even for an infant. Care to explain?
Add content of one capsule (250 mg) into aquarium for each 10 gallons of water to be treated. Repeat in 24 hours. It is suggested that a partial water change be made between treatments. While durations of treatment depends on type and severity of the infection, it is recommended that extended baths in the medication continue for a minimum of five days and for not more than ten days. Discontinue treatment with this medication if no improvement is noted within five days.
Caution: For aquarium and ornamental fish only. Not for human use. Keep out of the reach of children. Keep container tightly closed and in a cool dry place. Not to be given to fish intended for food use.
Fish Antibiotics Facts and Information
Q. What are fish antibiotics?
A. Fish antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections in fish. The antibiotics that are used to treat fish are the same or similar as the antibiotics that are provided for human use from antibiotic manufacturing companies, depending on type of antibiotic and form. Antibiotic tablets and capsules used for ornamental and pet fish are the same as the antibiotics dispensed from the local pharmacies for human use, except that they are clearly labeled for fish use only and are not for human consumption.
Q. If the antibiotics for fish are the same as the USP grade antibiotics that are dispensed from human pharmacies then why are should humans not take them also?
A. The law clearly states that any antibiotic for non-human use needs to be labeled as "not for human use" regardless of application. Sources it's antibiotics from the same USP grade manufacturing as antibiotics used for humans, but they are not doctors and do not deal in human health problems. Only a doctor can correctly prescribe antibiotics for specific need in humans. If a human is sick and needs antibiotics then it is likely that person also needs the expertise and guidance of a doctor.
Q. If fish antibiotics are labeled "not for human use" does that mean I can give them to my dog or cat, or other sick animal?
Antibiotics you may be prescribed at the veterinarian's office may be exactly the same as the antibiotics make for fish, it is likely that if your animal is sick enough for antibiotics then they should be under the care of a veterinarian.
