These OTC antibiotics are marked mostly for fish. How do you properly use them with humans?

They are the exact same capsules from the same supply. 100mg of Doxycycline is a standard human dosage. It is a lot harder to use them on birds, you have to open the capsules and proportion the dust for the bird into drinking water.

It is a dirty little secret of the pharma industry that a $5 human pill is the same as a 50cent horse pill. Same machine, same lot numbers, different retail package.

Fifty cents to the Pharma industry, $4.50 to the tort lawyers for Malpractice suits.
