dragon meds

i finally got to take my water dragon to the vets today. he has a pretty bad URI. i had raised the temps and humidity but now i have him in a cage a bit smaller to raise them even higher. the vet gave me 3 weeks worth of baytril to give him. he also said my dragon is really skinny even though i feed him alot. he gave him a calcium steroid shot to help and told me to feed him even more. my dragon also had something wrong with his lip, you can see his top fangs. my vet told me the meds will probably help that, also put neosporin on it, i was hoping he'd give me meds just for that but i guess its not very bad. he also told me to go to petsmart and get Emeraide (sp) its for baby or sick birds. he sais he's used it alot on sick lizards and it should help alot. when i get it how much and how often do you think i should give it to him? (that question totaly slipped my mind to ask my vet) and has any one else used it before? my vet sais hes really worried because my dragon seems so sick and sais if he doesn't get better in a few days from the baytril he think i'll have to leave him there over night for a treatment where they put him in a cage and have him breathe a medicine. he seemd alot worse at the vets, acted like he was half dead, but at home hes really perky and jumpy as ususal.
