Kittens weighing less than 1 kg should not be treated with this medication, as accurate dosing is not possible.

Route of administration:
Oral use.
Tablets should be administered directly into the animal’s mouth, but they can also be given with a small amount of food if necessary.

To ensure correct dosing, the body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.

In cases of ascarid infestations, particularly in kittens, complete parasite elimination may not occur, posing a risk of transmission to humans. Therefore, repeated treatments with an appropriate medication should be carried out at 14-day intervals until 2–3 weeks after weaning.

If symptoms persist or reappear, consult a veterinarian.
