Dosalid 1200mg 20 tablets

Dosalid is a broad spectrum anthelmintic for the treatment of infections caused by tapeworms and roundworms in dogs.

It has been shown to be effective against the following adult parasites: Tapeworms ( Dipylidium caninum , Taenia hydatigena , Taenia pisiformis and Echinococcus granulosus ), Ascarids ( Toxocara canis and Toxascaris leonina ) and Hookworms ( Uncinaria stenocephala and Ancylostoma caninum ).

Active substances: Epsiprantel and Pirantel. 

Target species: Canines (dogs).

Dosage and route of administration:

Dosalid is indicated for oral administration only. Fasting is neither necessary nor recommended. The recommended dose is 10.5 mg/kg, which corresponds to 5.5 mg/kg of epsiprantel and 5.0 mg/kg of pyrantel (as pamoate). Puppies: Puppies should be treated at 2-4 weeks of age and then at monthly intervals until 6 months of age. In the case of puppies known to be seriously infected with T. canis, repeated doses may be necessary, i.e. for 2 to 3 consecutive days. Adults: Treatment should be biannual or, if necessary and on the advice of the attending veterinarian, more frequently to control tapeworms (monthly). In the case of an infection by E.granulosus , a second treatment is recommended, due to its high pathogenicity for humans. Nursing bitches: Treat during the beginning of lactation. Control of reinfections in dogs should be carefully considered using meticulous attention to hygiene and control of intermediate hosts such as fleas and access to potentially contaminated food (e.g. raw wild rabbit).
