Prazipro xtremely safe?

[Unattended Fish]

I found in my smaller community tank my small loaches scratching a bit and found no ick so I'm suspecting gill flukes. I'm thinking of dosing with prazipro but was wondering if I should lessen the dosage since they are loaches in which they don't have scales and also the tank has a few plecos. I've read that plecos don't do so well with certain meds and I'm kinda weary of dosing the tank. I'm thinking they got it from me not quarantining new fish (bad habit). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Prazi pro is fine to use in it's regular dose but if you suspect gill flukes, I would use Api's general cure instead. Prazi is used for ip's.

PraziPro is an is an anthelmintic cestodicide which is basically only effective at treating tapeworms, flatworms, & flukes. It contains <5% praziquantel by weight, and is designed specifically to be used as a dewormer, not to treat internal (or external) parasites such as flagellates, flukes, etc.
