Gonna go the discus route pretty soon.. I hear horror stories all the time about sick discus so I'm gonna QT them before introducing them to their main tank.

What kind of meds are good to use when QT'ing discus?
 
I usually don't medicate discus at all unless it is absolutely necessary. If you get the fish from a reliable source, it is usually not needed. Quarantine for a month or two, and if all are eating and no white feces, it's safe to add them to your display tank.
 
I worm all my fish (no matter what species) with Flubendazole first. No other treatments are required if they are feeding well and show no sign of disease.
Just take your time with, no less than 8 better 12 weeks in a q tank
