Administration and duration of treatment
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.
Adverse reactions
In very rare cases, gastrointestinal disorders (vomiting) & neurological signs such as ataxia and muscle tremors have been observed.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports)
