How often should I use Drontal?
It is advised that an adult dog or cat should be treated for worms four times a year. There may be specific instances however where a regime of more frequent worming treatment is desirable. These would include the worming of puppies and kittens, hunting cats which eat mice, and dogs and cats which experience repeated flea problems. Fleas should be controlled by the use of an effective product such as Effipro Spot-on or Spray
Dosage
The recommended dose rate is one Drontal Cat Tablet per 4 kg bodyweight
For single oral administration. The tablets should be given directly to the animal, but if necessary can be disguised in food.
You should worm your pet regularly to avoid worms affecting your pet’shealth and to reduce public health risk. Worming at least every threemonths is recommended to reduce this risk or alternatively, ask your vetto advise you on a specific worming routine for your pet.
Flea control is also essential at the same time as worming. Fleas are often infected with the larvae of the Flea Tapeworm, which can be transferredto your cat during grooming. A spot-on treatment such as Effipro or Frontline is one of the easiest ways to protect your cat but you may also need to use a household spray such as Vetkem Accaim or Indorex that kills flea eggs and larvae in your pet’s surroundings to effectively break the flea lifecycle.
