Re: Drontal wormer
Does this take care of all worms and is it a pill that you give every month?Reason i am asking is that i give a pill every month to my dogs but just this past week i had a dog to get a type of tape worm. Thought that the pills i was giving was to take care of them.The vet told me that there is not a pill out there that will prevent all worms?

Re: Drontal wormer
These pills do NOT take care of heartworm, use Ivomec for that. Otherwise, they take care of all intestinal worms.cris axtell/coal hill ken wrote:takes care of everything. you give 1 dose.[ each pill treats a 22lb dog.] then again a week later. then every 3 months after that. paratac plus [sp]

Re: Drontal wormer
Well the wormer i am useing is " Intercepter " Straight from the vet and it takes care of every worm except tape. So if i am giving the intercepter every month will i be able to give this other pill for the other worms at the same time without any problems? i know i ask alot of questions and most of you have more experience than me so i am needing a little help.And knew i could find an answer here advice.You know the old timers had remedies for most everything back in the day and i use some of them,Is their a remedy for this by chance or is there no chance of that when we are talking about worms.Thanks Guys

Re: Drontal wormer
You will need pyrantel promate suspension for pups, the stuff I posted is specifically good for tapes that you can't get rid of with anything else, but you can use it for hookworms, whip worms, and round worms. Dogs don't have a bad reaction after taking it. The pkg does say you can use on pups, however I would rather use the tried and true on my pups you can get the pyrantel promate suspension at http://www.revivalanimal.com in the quart size bottle for around $20.00 and it will last you a long time. Another reason I say that wouldn't use on pups is the tablets are for 22 lb dogs and it says on the pkg do not over dose the dogs. I would think it would be really hard to chop up a pill to make sure you got enough/and not to much in a pup. With the Pyrantel Promate it is liquid and you can measure out with a syringe.

No wormer gets rid of every worm. This is a fallacy.
Drontal wormers (and their equivalents) are essentially a colossal waste of money. They are, essentially, a combination of several different wormers in one ... and yet you can buy each of these wormers, separately, for a whole lot cheaper than you can buying them all together.
Worse, the most expensive wormer in the "mix" (praziquantel) is rarely ever necessary. The only thing it does is treat tapeworm, so if you don't have tapes you don't need the praziquantel. Why worm your dogs for $1.33 (or $3.50), to treat tapeworms your dogs don't have, when you can worm them for $0.07 (seven cents)! There is absolutely no reason to use praziquantel (Droncit, Drontal, or their equivalent) on a monthly basis. If your dogs repeatedly have tapeworm, you are being lax in your flea control! Control the fleas, get rid of the tapes ONCE, and then go back to standard, less expensive wormers for your monthly worm prevention.
Worse still, the fenbental in these pills is an utter waste of money and is only in there for "show." What do I mean by this? I mean excactly this: fenbental is for whipworm, but it has to be dosed twice daily, for 3 days in a row, to be effective ... therefore, giving only "one" Drontal (or equivalent) doesn't give anywhere near enough fenbental to your dog, so it doesn't actually do a thing for whipworm.
And still worse than the above, regarding hookworm, the pyrantel pamoate that is in Drontal (etc.) is only dosed for ROUNDWORM ... for hookworm pyrantel pamoate needs to be double-dosed and also given for 3 days in a row to kill them. Therefore, yet again, Drontal (etc.) doesn't actually do a thing for hookworm either.
People who actually know what they're doing do NOT use these catch-all wormers for precisely these reasons: they're too expensive and they're improperly-dosed for hooks and whips. You'd have to triple your dose for hooks--and multiply it x6 for whips! And, again, the most expensive ingredient is for tapes, and (if you're on top of fleas) your dogs won't even have tapes. Why give 3 Drontal pills to a dog with hookworm, but no tapeworm? Why spend $3 to $9, per dog, when you could spend $0.21 (twenty-one cents per dog), wasting tapeworm meds when the dog doesn't even have tapes? (You can double these figures for whips.)
Instead, treat your dogs for what they need. Buy Panacur for whips, pyrantel pamoate for rounds and hooks, and only use praziquantel (Droncit) for a confirmed case of tapes. You will be able to taylor your dosages correctly and you will ONLY spend what you need to spend to get the job done ... rather than mis-dosing on half the worms you're trying to get, all the while pouring your money down the drain treating for tapes your dogs probably don't even have.
Education is everything ...
