We can also become infected with an intermediate stage of some species of tapeworm if we swallow tapeworm eggs. It’s even possible (though uncommon) for people to develop a tapeworm infection if they swallow an infected flea. Pregnancy & Lactation- Safe to use during lactation, nursing bitches should be treated 2 weeks after giving birth, at two week intervals until weaning (to protect against Toxocara). Do not use during the first or second, third of pregnancy (safe to use during the last third of pregnancy). Most dogs need worming 4 times per year, but some will require monthly worming, whilst others may need treatment less often.

Results obtained in the laboratory and clinical studies indicate small numbers of hookworm or roundworm eggs may be passed in the feces for up to 7 days after treatment although the worms themselves were eliminated. A follow-up fecal examination should be conducted 2 to 4 weeks after treatment to determine the need for retreatment. Hildreth MB Johnson MD and Kazacos KR. 1991.
