worming tablets


Recommended Posts


I agree. Drontal+ is the danglies and much cheaper online. Just so I'm not simply posting a "What he said" post... Has anyone heard of Milbemax? I used to use it for the bulls, as it's designed for larger dogs.

 

It's more expensive than Drontal PER TAB, but each tab does a dog two or three times heavier than one Drontal, if you get me. It kills the same gear as Drontal, so for anyone with large lurchers (or bulls, etc) it's worth looking at as it does work out cheaper per dose overall (i.e. one Milbemax rather than three Drontal).

 

I was told by a vet a couple of years ago that many endoparasites were immune to Panacur now, and they stopped selling it for that reason. Drontal was no more expensive than Panacur at that practice, so maybe they were right?

Think you could be onto something there,the local rescue kennels used Drontal for years then after 4 or 5 years they

noticed it wasn't cleaning them out,the vet changed them onto pancure and they had no problems

I reckon it might have been the same the other way round.It could be a good idea to change wormers every so often.

That is ~ or should be ~ the standard practice, mate. That's why ye'll see I've messed around with various other Wormers, and am always on the look out for something else :good:

 

Mix, match, chop, change; Keep those worms on their ..... erm ... " Toes " ? :unsure:

thanks for your help guys,im gonna get some drontal plus.howmany would you reccomend i give my lurcher she about 50 lb

That's about 22KG mate. Drontal is one tab per 10KG so you'd need two tabs for a 50lbs dog :thumbs-up:

 

:thumbs-up: cheers mate

 

good hunting

Cheers for that, Nickey. :hmm: So, in short; Unless ye keep a veritable 'pack of hounds', ye liable to end up ditching most below the neck of the bottle. Or else just dosing ye Dogs with 'out of date' stock? (Unless this stuff has a shelf life measured in Light Years?)

 

Personally, I only tend to worm when one or other of them shows they may need it. I'm probably way too old now to ever even get through an 'ageless' litre.

 

Guess I'll just stick with the tablets.

nice posts mr shitter you make us laugh all the time not?you seem to have a really enginered mind on all sorts lately dont you?well the reason im hear anyway was I WANT TO NO WAT THE FK YOU ON i never new a good drug that made so much shit come out of someone mouth ,this much?if some one ask you a qestion ?just give them a answer ,not a load of blubbering shite wat were used to hearing ,some of us are getting bored now :victory::laugh:

 

 

no need for that, ditch shitter is a respected member of this site and over the time he has been here has kept us all amused with his well constructed, thought out posts.

i use the milbemax, get it from the vet's.. It is about £4.50 a tablet, but it does the trick, it works for my dog's, my dogs work for me, so there worth it.

That's what my vets use RM. Before i found out about wormers online all mine were done with milbemax. Vets charged £5.25 for 1 tablet! Most of mine had to have 1 1/2. So quite expensive with 15 dogs every 3 months without fail! Even though they need more drontal tabs than milbemax it still works out cheaper. ;)
