ProLabs Tape Worm Tabs Dog (praziquantel) is available without a prescription. Removes both types of tapeworms (Dipylidium caninum and Taenia pisiformis) in dogs and puppies over 4 weeks of age.
Tapeworm infection is one of the most common internal parasite problems actually observed by dog owners. The presence of tapeworms is indicated by the presence of tapeworm segments passed with the feces. Tapeworm segments are white, pinkish-white or yellow-white and similar in size and shape to flattened grains of rice. The segments are most frequently observed lying on the animal's droppings or, less often, moving across a freshly passed stool. Segments are also found on the hair around the anus of the animal, or occasionally on the animal's bedding. Dogs become infected with tapeworms after eating fleas or small animals (rabbits, hares) which are infected with tapeworm larvae. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis, treatment, and control of parasitism.
100% safe and effective when used according to label directions. Isolated incidents of either vomiting, diarrhea, poor appetite, or listlessness have been reported following treatment, but were considered non-significant. If these signs are observed and they persist, consult your veterinarian.
Consult your veterinarian before administering tablets to weak or debilitated animals.
