caninum. Tapeworm infestation is certain to re-occur unless control of intermediate
hosts such as fleas, mice etc. is undertaken.
Dogs may become infected with worms by eating insects (including fleas and lice),
birds, small rodents, rabbits or raw offal from affected sheep, goats and cattle. Dogs
will continue to be re-infected unless the route of infection is controlled e.g. treating a
flea infestation or preventing a dog from scavenging or hunting.
Parasite resistance to any particular class of anthelmintic may develop following
frequent, repeated use of an anthelmintic of that class.
Special precautions for use in animals
Do not exceed the stated dose, especially when treating pregnant bitches.
In dogs less than 6 weeks old, tapeworm infections are highly uncommon. Treatment
of animals less than 6 weeks old with a fixed combination product against cestodes
and nematodes may, therefore, not be necessary.
To minimise the risk of reinfestation and new infestation, any excreta within 24 hours
following treatment should be collected and properly disposed of.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal
product to animals
In the interests of good hygiene, persons administering the tablet directly to a dog or
by adding it to the dog's food, should wash their hands afterwards.
In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice and show the package leaflet to
the physician.
(used in many worming products for dogs) may be antagonized.
Concurrent use with other cholinergic compounds can lead to toxicity.
Simultaneous administration of compounds that inhibit the activity of
acetylcholinesterase - AChE (e.g.organophosphates) may increase systemic effects
of pyrantel.
Plasma concentrations of praziquantel may be decreased by concomitant
administration with drugs that increase the activity of cytochrome P-450 enzymes
(e.g. dexamethasone, phenobarbital).
