Advice about using praziquantel

Our pond is around 16' across (a circle and about 3 feet deep) When we checked a long time ago, it was said that we have around 5,000 gallons. There are three large koi (about 2.5') long, some a bit smaller, and lots of goldfish. We have two huge rubbermaid external filters that the water is pumped to, with brushes from Japan, which catch a lot of gunk. We run a double UV filter (one bulb is bad and needs to be changed), and we pump water about 6" into the air and it just splashed into the pond. The return from the brush filters comes back into the pond with a return pipe.
I had a sick fish which I nursed back to health with Microbe -Lift's Broad Spectrum Disease treatment. It had a very serious case of dropsy. When I was talking with the salesperson there- she advised that I worm my fish. I have never done it. Has anyone used the Priaziquantel? I am afraid, but they probably need it. Does anyone have any words of wisdom? Thank you!
