Questions
Will this also work for other worm's?
How often do you give it?
Just one pill or one pill aday for three days?
Does this product kill other kinds of worms, or only tapeworms?
How long does it take, for it to work?
Is it one tablet and done or all 3 tablets and. Done?
OK. How often do you give the three tablets. No instructions on how to do this? Can you help?
- Indeed, the included instructions are not at all clear, are they? Start with one tablet, another in two weeks if needed. My cat had very loose bowels from the tapeworms, but it cleared up after one pill. If you have multiple cats, treat them all regardless of showing symptoms or not. Hope that helps!

It says over 11 lbs gets 1 1/2 tablets… but if my cat is 25 lbs, should he get 2 tablets?
Will this work for all worms or just tapeworms?
- Only tapeworms.

Hi. Do I need to empty and disinfect my cats litter box when I deworm for tape worms? If so, when? At the exact same time, a day later, two days or is it not necessary? Thank you and goodnight.
- That depends. If your home and fur-children have been treated for fleas and you know for sure there are no more fleas hanging around waiting to ambush your kitty, then you can clean as usual or feel free to do something special bcuz it makes YOU feel better. After all, tapeworms are gross! The ONLY way your amazing kitties can get re-infected with tapeworms is by eating a tapeworm infested "flea". It's True! I'm in the same boat as all of you right now. I just read ALOT!

Gave my 15 lb cat Elanco dewormer for tapeworms...1 and half tablets. Have seen two small worms by anus. He vomited within a half hour a 5-6" tapeworm. Should I give him additional tablets since he barely absorbed them? The tapeworm must have migrated to his stomach? He eats mice and rodents
Hello, I was able to trap a very skittish stray cat and get him neutered and shots. I feed him every day and give him once a month oral flea medication (CapShield Plus, which contains 11.3mg of Nitenpyram and 204.9mg of Lufenuron). I just noticed he has tapeworms and was wondering what type of oral tapeworm medication I can give him that won't interact with the CapShield Plus. Thank you very much for your help, Robert Covich
I recently brought a new young cat into my home who had tapeworms. I brought him into a low-cost clinic offering a limited range of care, and they simply gave me one tablet of drontal to give him 3 days after that day, in which they applied flea medicine in clinic. I gave kitty his pill, and since then have not really been noticing any more "sesame seeds" where he lays. But my question is, is one pill really enough to ensure it's wiped out? For your information, he will be an indoor only cat now
Our cats have worms that look lice white rice. We have 3 main coon 9 months old female. 2 flame point siamese. A mom of unknown age and her 4 month old daughter. And finally, we have a female Norwegian Forest Cat. Very young kitten. Unknown age. Best guess, 4 months as well. Maybe younger. We tried the liquid and no good. A Petco worker suggested getting tablets. Which ones are best? Is there a right and wrong? Please help
What is the total number of tablets for proper dosing of Praziquantel tablets for my cat who has tapeworms? She is 6 pounds, and five months old. I gave her one 23 mg tablet. Does she require two more doses every five hours?
Hi our cat has a lot of flat type worms several sizes we are treating for tape worms

Are commercial cat dewormers safe for my cats?
Hello, i rescued a pregnant cat. She gave birth to 6 beautiful babies. Noticed she has tape worms. When can i give her tapeworm dewormer? She is nursing they are 3 weeks old. If you can suggest a tapeworm dewormer what do you suggest? Thank you
Hi I just got a cat and found out he has tapeworms is it okay to give him the pro-sense dewormer
We thought our cats had tapeworms and roundworms, but under closer inspection we saw that the worms looked like only tapeworms. We gave them medicine for roundworm (containing 250 mg of piperazine per 5 ml) and 3 out of 4 of them have puked. Are my cats gonna be okay? Would it be safe to still administer the tapeworm medicine afterwards?
Due to Covid-19, I cannot access a vet and my cat seems to have taperworm (rice shape & he dragged his bottom on the floor). Is it safe to purchase an OTC dewormer ? Which brand is most recommended? Thank you!
