(lethargy) and neurological sign (ataxia) have been observed very rarely.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse
reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated
reports).
dogs should be wormed routinely 2 - 4 times a year. Since the most common
tapeworm of the dog (Dipylidium caninum) is transmitted by a flea and has a
very short pre-patent period, it is important to pay attention to flea control to
reduce the incidence of tapeworm in your pet.
If symptoms of disease persist or appear, consult your veterinary surgeon.
