First of all make sure that he has the correct lighting. Only certain brands of light really work. Zoomed Repti-sun 5.0 is what I would recommend. You can add calcium supplements to his diet. You may need to get some oral calcium liquid from your vet to get the correct amount to help him.

You should be able to get some Neocalglucon and give him an oral supplement, about 0.3mls once daily for 21 days then 2 to 3 times weekly should help.

There are a couple of different brands, Neocalglucon, Calciquid. these are usually supplied only to veterinarians. Since you are a pharmacist you may be able to get it from one of your distributors. The main ingredient is calcium glubonate. Otherwise you would need to contact your vet.

You do not need to accept the information. The only way to get it is thru your veterinarian or local pharmacy with a prescription. It is not an over the counter medication. I wish the best for your dragon and its better soon.
