Praziquantel - Praziquantel Based Wormers

 
 

Administered twice a year as a tapeworm treatment. Products that contain Ivermectin as well Praziquantel can be used all year as they are also an effective treatment against bots and round worms. Products that contain only Praziquantel as the active ingredient give the option of treating for tape worm without also treating for roundworm helping to reduce the risk of resistance. However in instances of encysted larvae, a treatment using a 5-day course of a Febendazole-based products or a Moxidectin based wormer which has an ability to kill encysted developing cyathostome larvae (small redworm) in a single standard dose would be more appropriate.
