It works great!! It’s hard for cats to swallow due to taste. Instead you can mix it in with wet, canned foods..

Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good product. easy to use. achieve high efficiency. It has no smell or taste. The pills aren't too big. The cat is old, so it's easy. 3 pills. My cat looks healthier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great option for your pet. The size of the pill is really small which allows you to insert into a treat. The dosage directions are easy to understand. The length of time that the dosage lasts is better than most. I asked my vet about this product and she recommended. Great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging is as expected for pet medicine nothing fancy about it. I find dewormers for all my pets a good precaution just in case. Silver my exotic Persian had his dose and was a little more groggy for a few hours after taking. I find relief in giving him one and was happy with how he was easily fooled to eat it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product for years. They are a great price and have always been effective. My kitty went from a feral cat to an indoor/outdoor cat to strictly indoor and it has worked well through it all. Will definitely be buying again.

Not for my cat, she won't eat her food

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My cat is small so I gave her half because she's under 4lbs. But because she's small even the half was too big so I crushed it up and mixed in her food for 2 days.... she won't eat her food at all and eats from the other cats. I have 4 cats and none of them will eat it. The pill form may not be the best option for me and my little girlie, if a liquid option were available that might be better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My cat got out a few months ago and came home with fleas followed by tapeworms. I had tried another brand with to no avail. This seems to have done the trick! I was a bit concerned about the size of the pills but with a bit of cheese he was able to get it down a lot easier than I thought he would! There are only three pills in the bottle but you really don’t need more. I did notice a bit of extra salivating after a few hours but I think it was only because I was watching so closely to make sure he wouldn’t have a reaction. Other than that, no issues and I’m grateful it seems to have worked as it’s now two weeks later.

Questions

1 - 10 of 33 Questions

Can I give this to a mama cat that gave birth to kittens or is it bad for her.

    Will this also work for other worm's?

      How often do you give it?

        Just one pill or one pill aday for three days?

          Does this product kill other kinds of worms, or only tapeworms? 

            How long does it take, for it to work?

              Is it one tablet and done or all 3 tablets and. Done?

                OK. How often do you give the three tablets. No instructions on how to do this? Can you help?

                1. Indeed, the included instructions are not at all clear, are they? Start with one tablet, another in two weeks if needed. My cat had very loose bowels from the tapeworms, but it cleared up after one pill. If you have multiple cats, treat them all regardless of showing symptoms or not. Hope that helps!



                It says over 11 lbs gets 1 1/2 tablets… but if my cat is 25 lbs, should he get 2 tablets?

                  Will this work for all worms or just tapeworms?

                  1. Only tapeworms.
