Drontal^® Plus (praziquantel/pyrantel pamoate/febantel) for Dogs

Dogs currently infected with intestinal parasites often need a few rounds of deworming (this is especially important in puppies) to adequately clear out infections. This is because an infected dog will often harbor different life stages of worms, some of which will not be killed by the first dose. Your veterinarian can help provide you with an appropriate deworming strategy that best fits your dog’s needs.

HOW DO I GIVE DRONTAL PLUS TO MY DOG?

Drontal^® Plus (praziquantel/pyrantel pamoate/febantel) is given by mouth and available in two forms: Tablets and Taste Tabs^®. For easier administration, you can place the tablets in a pill pouch or include them in a type of food that your dog will readily eat. Drontal^® Plus Taste Tabs^® are beef-flavored to provide a tasty treat-like experience. There is no need to fast before or during treatment.

HOW DOES DRONTAL PLUS WORK?

The unique combination of ingredients in Drontal^® Plus attack the worms in your pet’s intestinal tract. When given to a dog, the active ingredients concentrate in the intestines, coming into direct contact with the worms. The worms will disintegrate, break apart, or become paralyzed and then be expelled in your pet’s stool.
