How To Remove Melafix??

I put in some Melafix in my 125 gallon reef tank, and it seems to have not done anything for the ich. I want to remove the Melafix before I put in KICK-ICH. My protein skimmer is just pulling lots and lots of clear water... probably with Melafix in it, but it won't stop!... I've put in some carbon as well, it doesn't stop the protein skimmer from excessive foaming as well.... Any ideas on how to remove the Melafix? I've even tried changing 20% of the water..... protein skimmer is still foaming!... Should I do a 50% water change?... Anyone else have any experience with Melafix and protein skimmers and how to remove the Melafix from the system??
Thanks!

You get a good deal of it out by using fresh carbon filters for 48 hours. However, I not put any other chemical "medication in your reef tank. These additives are not advisible at all for reef tanks, despite what the label hype says, and they don't really work either.
