| Dosage and method of administration |
- The medicine is intended for oral administration. During treatment, it should be taken into account that:
- prior “starvation” or taking laxatives is not required;
- tablets are given in the morning (on an empty stomach) with a small portion of regular food.
If there are problems with feeding, it is allowed:
- enter into the pharynx – including using a tablet dispenser;
- “Disguise” the tablet with your pet’s favorite treat or put it in sausage / cheese.
Dosing recommendations depend on the content of active substances and the weight of the animal. The dose for admission is determined from the following ratios:
- Dirofen 120 mg – 1 tab. per 1 kg of weight;
- Dirofen 200 mg – 1 tab. for 5 kg;
- Dirofen 1000 mg – 1 tab. for 20 kg.
There is no need to round the dose up – the tablet can be divided into 2/4 parts.
The scheme depends on the purpose and type of the identified invasion. For prophylaxis and before vaccination / viscous, the medicine is given once.
Deworming in two stages is necessary:
- for prevention in places of group stay of animals;
- in the presence of a confirmed diagnosis (with an accurate definition of the pathogen – round / flat, mixed) and severe symptoms of invasion.
The interval between the first and second stages should be 14 days, but the amount of treatment will differ with:
- nematodoses – 1 time per day, then repeated one-day intake after 14 days;
- cestodoses and combined invasions – 1 time per day for 3 days, after 14 days the three-day intake is repeated.
To achieve a therapeutic effect, it is recommended to comply with dosages and treatment regimens. If the planned use was missed, the drug is given as soon as possible, without changing the dose and the interval between doses in the future.
