Metro flakes has some metronidazole in the food to help clear hexamita in the fish. I have used them with no ill effects.

Pepso food has some antibiotics and some antiparasite meds in the food to help clear of internal worms. I have used it with no ill effects.
I believe the deworm flakes are similar to the pepso flakes.

I have not used the romet flakes.

Actually I believe it helps in conjunction with meds in the water.

I agree with Ardan. The one blue diamond I saved, After getting it better with metro in the water, the little bugger would still not eat. I tried metro flake and behold it starting eating the medicated food. I tried other food besides but that fish would not eat anything else. I believe it worked for me but maybe I just got lucky. As for the other stuff I haven't tried any of it.
