Wormit Film-coated Tablets for Cats 16/40 mg

In order to develop an effective worm control programme, local epidemiological

information and the risk of exposure of the cat should be taken into account.
The possibility that other animals in the same household can be a source of re-
infection should be considered, and these should be treated as necessary with
an appropriate veterinary medicinal product.
In the absence of risk of co-infection with nematodes and cestodes, a narrow
spectrum product should be used.
When infection with the cestode

treatment against intermediate hosts, such as fleas and lice, should be
discussed with

a veterinarian to prevent re-infection.

Special precautions for safe use in the target species
As per good veterinary practice, animals should be weighed to ensure accurate

dosing.
