Enteric infections that result in clinical problems are, in general, uncommon. They are usually related to poor husbandry.

'''Clinical signs''' include vomiting (grave prognosis) and diarrhoea.

'''Diagnosis''' - history, [[Lizard Physical Examination|physical examination]], faecal cultures, radiology, haematology and biochemistry.

'''Treatment''':
* Symptomatic therapy (e.g. kaolin)
* Increased dietary fibre (bran, hay, alfalfa pellets)
* Oral inoculation of parasite-free faeces from a healthy iguana
* Antibiotics
* [[Lizard Supportive Care|Supportive care]]

-Enteric infections that result in clinical problems are, in general, uncommon. They can be associated with a bacterial pathogen, however this is not necesarily always the case. Indeed, enteritis is often related to poor husbandry, inappropriate diet, misuse of antimicrobials, parasites, stress and foreign bodies.
