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.
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.
vomiting and mild and short-lived disorders of the nervous system such as loss of

- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))

- 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)

Development of parasite resistance to anthelmintics of a certain class can occur

Special precautions for use in animals
Not intended for use in cats weighing less than 1 kg bodyweight.
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
or carton 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 . are prevalent, a veterinarian
should be consulted.
Unused halved tablets should be discarded.
Do not remove tablets from the immediate packaging until required for use.
