Directions for use:
1 tablet per 4kg bodyweight.
Tablet should be given directly to the cat, but if necessary can be disguised in food.
Kittens, should be treated at 14 day intervals until 2-3 weeks after weaning as a complete ascarid elimination cannot be expected.
To ensure administration of a correct dose, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.
Dosage:
The recommended dose is 1 tablet per 4 kg bodyweight.
Cats weighing 1.0 - 2.0kg: 1/2 tablets
Cats weighing 2.0 - 4.0kg: 1 Tablet
Cats weighing 4.0 - 6.0kg: 1 1/2kg
Cats weighing greater than 6.0kg
Administration and duration of treatment:
Single oral administration. 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.
Do not use simultaneously with other deworming products without veterinary advice. Do not use in kittens less than 6 weeks of age. Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any of the excipients. Do not use during pregnancy. Not intended for use in cats weighing less than 1kg bodyweight. Do not use during pregnancy but may be used during lactation.
