Edit: The following ratios were provided by @Dierks:
So I threw together a couple of videos (below) to show how to use DMSO to dissolve medications which are not easily water soluble. These include API General Cure, praziquantel and fenbendazole. I buy DMSO (Dimethyl sulfoxide) at Tractor Supply in the horse (equestrian) products section: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/dmso-16-fl-oz (You want the liquid, NOT the gel.)
Praziquantel dosage range is 2.0-2.5 mg/L (7.57-9.5 mg/gal): Praziquantel
In his book, Noga states: "Immersion is more efficacious when praziquantel is dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) rather than ethanol (Treves-Brown 2000)."
Fenbendazole dosage is 25 mg/L (95 mg/gallon) for 12 hours: Fenbendazole
(Sorry about the loud stirring noise.)
- 1 ml of DMSO is required to dissolve 10mg of Fenbendazole
- 1 ml of DMSO is required to dissolve 15mg of Metronidazole
- 1 ml of DMSO is required to dissolve 77 mg of Praziquantel (updated ratio provided by @ichthyogeek)
