| Indications |
Dogs: Treatment of mixed infestations caused by adult cestodes and nematodes of the following species: Cestodes: Dipylidium caninum, Taenia spp., Echinococcus spp., Mesocestoides spp. The product can also be used for the prevention of heartworm disease (Dirofilaria immitis) if concomitant treatment against cestodes is required. |
||||||||
| Dosage and method of administration |
Oral administration.
In cases where prophylactic treatment against heartworm disease is administered and, at the same time, treatment against cestodes is required, the product can replace the monovalent product for heartworm disease prophylaxis. For the treatment of Angiostrongylus vasorum infestation, milbemycin oxime can be administered four times at weekly intervals. In cases where concomitant treatment against cestodes is indicated, it is recommended to administer the product once, after which treatment should continue with a monovalent product containing only milbemycin oxime for the remaining three weeks. In endemic areas, regular administration of the product every 4 weeks will prevent angiostrongylosis by reducing the number of immature adults (L5) and patent infestations, when concomitant treatment against cestodes is indicated. For the treatment of Thelazia callipaeda infestation, milbemycin oxime should be administered in two treatment series, 7 days apart. If concomitant treatment against cestodes is required, the product can replace the monovalent product containing only milbemycin oxime. |
