HELP! Fish is dying

Hey guys, I'm referring to my fish with popeye. I got the triple sulfa and have been treating for three days now. Today I found my fish sitting on the bottom of the tank. He's still alive, but isn't moving around as much. Here's of pic of him from yesterday. Never mind. They won't upload. PLEASE HELP! I THINK HE'S DYING!

Someone please help! His gills are silvery and he's having trouble staying up. He's kind of on his side. Please reply soon!

The only thing I know to do is a large water change. I have never used the triple sulfa antibiotics. Sorry

He's laying on the floor struggling for life. There's probably not much more I can do. If it does die, should I do a water change and still treat with the medicine? Why would it die. I've been doing my water changes and treating eith medicine.

I'm sorry you lost him. It does sound like there probably was a secondary internal infection.
