Worming Products

Worming Products

Have you wormed your pet recently? Pets can carry worms without people being aware of it- you might not always see them! We recommend worming your pet at least every three months. If your pet has frequent contact with children then monthly worming is advised. This is because pets may carry Toxocara worms which can cause problems such as blindness in people and children are especially vulnerable.

In this category:

Panacur Products

Panacur products contain Fenbendazole and come in tablet, granule or liquid form. These products are generally easy to administer so it is a good choice for puppies, kittens and for animals who are choosy about what they eat! Panacur products are suitable for dogs and cats for the treatment of roundworms, tapeworms, lungworms and Giardia. They are not effective for the treatment of Dipylidium caninum- the tapeworm carried by fleas.

Granofen

Granofen is a 22% granular formulation of Fenbendazole. This product is generally easy to administer and should be mixed with food. It it is a good choice for puppies or kittens and for adult animals too. Granofen is suitable for dogs and cats for the treatment of roundworms, tapeworms and lungworms. It is not effective for the treatment of Dipylidium caninum- the tapeworm carried by fleas.

Milbemax

Milbemax is effective against many roundworm and tapeworm species including Dipylidium caninum, Taenia spp., Echinococcus, and Toxocara spp. Milbemax can also be used in the prevention of heartworm. Products are suitable for dogs or cats. The product for cats is palatable which can help to make dosing easier. A veterinary prescription is required for these broad spectrum worming products.

Drontal

Drontal products are used for the control of gastrointestinal roundworms and tapeworms in dogs and cats. They are particularly useful since they are effective against the "flea tapeworm" Dipylidium caninum. Drontal tablets may be administered either directly to the pet or may be hidden in the food.

Profender Spot-On for Cats

Profender Spot-on takes the stress out of worming your cat. It can simply be applied to your cat's skin so it saves yours from scratches! It treats cats which have or are at risk of getting roundworms such as Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina, Ancylostoma tubaeforme and tapeworms such as Dipylidium caninum, Taenia taeniaeformis, and Echinococcus multilocularis. This is a prescription only medicine so you will need to send us the prescription from your own vet so that we can supply this.

Droncit

Droncit products are available without veterinary prescription and can be used to treat dogs and cats for tapeworms. Tapeworms are small white worms which look like grains of rice and are often seen around the anal area of affected animals. If your pet has fleas or hunts for rodents then they may get tapeworms. Regular worming is advised and if your pet often hunts for mice, monthly worming will be necessary.
