Drontal
(praziquantel/pyrantel pamoate) Broad Spectrum Dewormer Tablets for

and Kittens are scored for easy breakage. Each tablet contains 18.2 mg

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Drontal
(praziquantel/ pyrantel pamoate) tablets will remove Tapeworms
(_Dipylidium_
_caninum_, _Taenia taeniaeformis_), Hookworms (_Ancylostoma
tubaeforme_), and Large
Roundworms (_Toxocara cati_) in cats and kittens.
The presence of tapeworms is indicated by the observance of tapeworm
segments
passed in the cat's feces. Tapeworm segments are white, pinkish-white
or yellow-white
in color and are similar in size and shape to flattened grains of
rice. The segments are
most frequently observed lying on a freshly passed stool. Segments may
also be found
on the hair around the anus of the animal or on the animal's bedding.
Cats become
infected with tapeworms after eating fleas or small mammals (rabbits,
mice) which may
be infected with tapeworm larvae.
Hookworms are small whitish or reddish-brown worms less than one inch
in length that
live in the intestinal tract and feed on blood. Cats can become
infected with hookworms
by swallowing infected larvae while grooming or when larvae from the
environment
burrow through the skin. Cats infected with hookworms may have poor
physical
condition, dull haircoat, and reduced body weight and diarrhea,
sometimes with the
presence of dark blood.
Large roundworms are white or yellow-white strands 2-7 inches in
length (similar in size
and color to smooth strings of spaghetti) that may be observed in the
cat's vomit or
feces. Cats become infected with large roundworms by swallowing
infective eggs,
particularly while grooming, or by ingestion of mice that may be
infected with larval
stages.
Large roundworms and hookworms pass eggs in the feces of the cat
