Lizard Formulary - Disclaimer

The following drug dosages are taken from multiple sources and neither their efficacy nor safety can be assured since the information may have been extrapolated from animals other than lizards. There will be interspecific variation.

Since lizards are poikilothermic, their metabolism is affected by the ambient temperature. The pharmacokinetics of any drug will therefore vary with the temperature. The lizard will need to be kept at the higher end of its POTZ. There are no drugs preparations licensed for reptiles. Drugs licensed for use in other species may be administered under the responsibility of the veterinary surgeon who has the lizard 'under his care'.
