Drontal Plus Round and Tapewormer - 1 Dose (10kg)

Question:

I use Advocate 4-10kg for my dog monthly (he is 9kg) and I usually get him a Drontal worming tablet every 3 months from the vet for I think, tape worm (which ever worm isnt treated with Advocate) Is your Drontal all wormer $4.95 the right substitute for this as it seems to do a lot of worms that are already treated by the Advocate?

Answer:

Most people don't bother with de-worm tablets if they use Advocate. As you said it covers most of the worms. However you are right Advocate doesn't covers tapeworms and yes Drontal covers it. You can use them together to make sure your dog don't get any worms.

Question:

what age can i start to give my pups drontal plus?

Answer:

Pups are usually born with worms since they are more susceptible when they are very young. It is advisable, therefore, to start a worming programme at 2 weeks of age, and to continue worming once a fortnight until 12 weeks old. Then it's ok every 2-3 months.
