USES

For the treatment of mixed infections caused by the following gastrointestinal roundworms and tapeworms:

Roundworms: Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina,

Tapeworms: Dipylidium caninum, Taenia taeniaeformis, Echinococcus multilocularis

DOSAGE

To ensure administration of a correct dose, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.

Dosage The recommended dose is: 20 mg/kg pyrantel (57.5 mg/kg pyrantel embonate) and 5 mg/kg praziquantel. This is equivalent to 1 tablet per 4 kg bodyweight.

Body weight                                  Tablets

1.0 - 2.0 kg                                    ½

Greater than 2.0 up to 4.0 kg       1

Greater than 4.0 up to 6.0 kg       1 ½

Greater than 6.0 kg                      2

Administration and duration of treatment

Single oral administration. The tablet should be given directly to the cat, but if necessary can be disguised in food.

In ascarid infestation, especially in kittens, complete elimination cannot be expected, so a risk of infection for humans can persist. Repeat treatments should, therefore, be carried out with a suitable roundworm product at 14 day intervals until 2-3 weeks after weaning.

If signs of disease persist or appear, consult a veterinary surgeon.

 

CONTRA INDICATIONS

Contra-indications

Do not use simultaneously with piperazine compounds.

Do not use simultaneously with other deworming products without veterinary advice.

Do not use in kittens less than 6 weeks of age.

Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any of the excipients.

Do not use during pregnancy

Special warnings for each target species

Fleas serve as intermediate hosts for one common type of tapeworm – Dipylidium caninum. Tapeworm infestation is certain to reoccur unless control of intermediate hosts such as fleas, mice, etc. is undertaken. Development of parasite resistance to anthelmintics of a certain class can occur after frequent and repeated use of an anthelmintic from that class

Special precautions for use

i) Special precautions for use in animals

Not intended for use in cats weighing less than 1 kg bodyweight

ii) Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals

In the interests of good hygiene, persons administering the tablets directly to the cat, or by adding them to the cat’s food, should wash their hands afterwards. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice and show the package leaflet to the physician.

Other precautions

Echinococcosis represents a hazard for humans. As Echinococcosis is a notifiable disease to the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), specific guidelines on the treatment and follow-up, and on the safeguard of persons, need to be obtained from the relevant competent authority (e. g. experts or institutes of parasitology) If the cat has visited areas where Echinococcus spp. are prevalent, a veterinarian should be consulted
