There are very few medicines authorised for use in fish. Subsequently, as a veterinarian, we have to constantly search for ways to treat fish diseases and use veterinary drugs off-label. Wouldn’t it be good if there was a go-to fish drug book you could refer to quickly?
Look no further, this little black book is one that my team mates and I keep constantly on hand for all our aquatic consultations.
Fish Vetting Medicines (2012) – Formulary Of Fish Treatments
There are nearly 300 entries in this publication. It provides a wealth of information on medications that may be available for use by fish health professionals in the treatment of fish diseases.
The purpose of this formulary is to collate the knowledge that aquarists, aquaculturalists, public aquaria, local fish shops and veterinarians already have, and to filter out misinformation and then provide this information in a quick, easy to access form.
This book is recommended to be used as a companion to “Fish Vetting Essentials” (2011) by Drs Richmond Loh & Matt Landos.
