Warnings

Fleas are the intermediate hosts of a common type of tapeworm, called Dipylidium caninum. Tapeworm infestation will certainly recur if no control measures are taken on intermediate hosts, such as fleas, mice, etc. Tapeworm infestation is unlikely in puppies less than 6 weeks old. Resistance of a parasite to a particular class of anthelmintics may develop following frequent, repeated use of an anthelmintic of that class. Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals: In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet to the physician. In accordance with good hygiene practices, wash your hands after administering the tablets directly to the dog or after adding them to its food. Overdose: The combined administration of praziquantel, pyrantel embonate and febantel is well tolerated by dogs. In safety studies, doses five or several times higher than those recommended have occasionally caused vomiting.
