How to give goose cocci medicine

[Farm Girl NJ]

Hi All, I adopted a lonely goose at my farm two weeks ago and it turns out he has coccidiosis. My vet said to give him Corid, but he doesn't know much about geese and he could not tell me if it is OK to put it in the water like I do with the chickens since the goose needs to puts his head under the water and it would get in his eyes. The vet also said we can use SMZ powder on the food but didn't know how to get it to stick to the food. I appreciate any advise from people who have had to medicate a goose. I don't want to let him in with the chickens before we clear up the Cocci. Thank you for your advise.
