Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 I've never had a problem with Milbamax. If you use them to worm your dog every 2 months you'll be sound as they cover all types of parasitic worms. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Millet 4,497 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 I find drontal+ good and i have used it for the past 8/9 yr's but it cannot harm to alternate among different brand's.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stormrider8 59 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 There both good but dont you only need one of the milbamax if your dog is over a certain weight. Rather than giving your dog two or three of the drontal.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

moxy 617 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 I suppose you have to try and see what works for you, not what your vets are getting backhanded to promote. A mate had a pup to the vets due to a bad worm problem and got given milbemax, after a few days the pup was shiteing live worms out, so back to the vets to be told the pup couldnt have any more and would have to wait out the course. This wouldnt do, so off to another vet who gave it drontal, problem sorted. Secondly, Got a pup of mine in a bad state from the breeder, so had to flea and worm well before its jabs were due. Explained this to the vet come jab time who enquired what i had used?? Commended me on the choice of wormer i had used saying it was the best but then proceeded to try and push something else, even though a retreat was way off. Vets and money. As for a vet not being able to get drontal, well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest lurchermania96 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 i use milbemax it covers every worm drontol doesnt cover lung worm and lung worm is prone in the uk so i have always used milbemax Quote Link to post Share on other sites
