SPECIAL WARNINGS
Fleas serve as intermediate hosts for one common type of tapeworm –
_Dipylidium caninum_
.
Tapeworm infestation is certain to reoccur unless control of
intermediate hosts such as fleas,
mice, etc. is undertaken.
If there is a risk for re-infestation, the advice of a veterinarian
should be sought regarding the
need for and the frequency of repeat administration in cats. Local
epidemiological information
and the living conditions of the cat should be taken into account. It
is also important to remove
sources of possible re-infection such as fleas and mice.
Parasitic resistance to a certain class of anthelmintics can occur
after frequent and repeated use
of an anthelmintic from this class.
