For maximum control and prevention of reinfestation, it is recommended that puppies be treated at 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10 weeks of age. Lactating bitches should be treated 2-3 weeks after whelping. Adult dogs kept in heavily contaminated quarters may be treated at monthly intervals to prevent T. canis reinfestation. Administer one full teaspoonful (5 mL) for each 10 lbs. of body weight.
For the removal of large roundworms (ascarids) and hookworms. Administer one full teaspoonful (5 mL) for each 10 lbs. of body weight. It is not necessary to withhold food prior to treatment.
If medication is to be dispensed, client can be advised that dogs usually find this wormer very palatable and will lick the dose from the bowl willingly. If there is reluctance to accept the dose, mix in a small quantity of dog food to encourage consumption.
It is recommended that dogs maintained under conditions of constant exposure to worm infestation should have a follow-up fecal exam within 2 to 4 weeks after first treatment.
The presence of these parasites should be confirmed by laboratory fecal examination. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitism.
