Baytril which is banned for use in chickens in the US, is probably the best antibiotic to use for internal laying, etc, but it will not stop them from laying. You can buy it online and get dosage on this thread "baytril and enrofloxacin sources, " if you put that into the search box top of this page. Vets are not supposed to prescribe it to chickens, but yours may if you sign a waiver that you are not going to use her for meat or eggs. Also, your vet could prescribe Supralorin hormone implants to stop her from laying for 4-6 months. It is something that some on BYC have used before.
