Internal parasite medication available in Australia?

Hi everyone, does anyone know of an effective internal parasite medication available in Australia? I am having difficulty finding some... Parasite Clear sounds great from what people have said in this forum but I can't find it in Aus. Tried Sterazin first which says on the label that it helps control internal parasites, but it didn't help. The fish keep pooping clear. Then the local fish store lady gave me Aquarium Science Broad Spectrum Medication which says it aids the treatment of parasites. Sounds pretty general, does anyone know if this works? I asked her if it includes internal parasites and she said yes, so I've given the tank a dose today. If this doesn't work I'll try garlic but from what I've read, that's more for prevention. *sigh* I can't believe keeping fish is so stressful.

I found Waterlife Sterazin, but it didn't cure the internal parasites and two guppies died during treatment. I'm wary of doing another course in fear of overdosing. Have you had success with Sterazin? Thanks for your help.

Unfortunately, I don't have any personal experience with them - they're not available in the US. I just have a list of non-US meds to reference. But hopefully other Fishlore members living in your area can give personal experiences with the meds available there.
