Roundworms in Amphibians

PrintPrint

Treatment

 

Your veterinarian may advise treatment with drugs used to destroy parasitic worms called antihelmintics. Follow the dosage and treatment schedule prescribed by your veterinarian strictly.

 

Prevention

 

Maintaining hygienic living conditions for your amphibian and frequently changing its water will ensure that the skin shedding does not promote the disease.
