- Parasite resistance to any particular class of anthelmintic may develop following frequent and repeated use of an anthelmintic of that class.
- Do not use simultaneously with piperazine compounds, as the anthelmintic effects of pyrantel and piperazine may be antagonised.
- Do not use in kittens less than 6 weeks of age.
- Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substances, or to any of the excipients.
- Do not use during pregnancy; but may be used during lactation.
- KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN, UNINFORMED PERSONS AND ANIMALS.

- The tablet should be given directly to the cat, or if necessary, it can be disguised in food.
- Ensure that the cat has consumed the tablet.
- In ascarid infestation, especially in kittens, complete elimination cannot be expected, so a risk of infection for humans can persist. Repeat treatments, should therefore, be carried out with a suitable roundworm product at 14-day intervals until 2 to 3 weeks after weaning. If signs of disease persist or reappear, consult a veterinarian.
- Adult cats should be dewormed regularly at intervals of 3 to 6 months to control worm infestations.

BERGING
Berg teen of benede 25 ºC in ‘n koel droë plek.
Moenie gedeeltelik gebruikte tablette stoor nie.
WAARSKUWINGS
- Vlooie dien as tussengasheer vir een algemene tipe lintwurm, nl. Dipylidium caninum. Lintwurmbesmetting sal verseker terugkeer, tensy beheer op tussengashere soos vlooie, knaagdiere ens. toegepas word.
- Parasietweerstand teen enige bepaalde klas ontwurmingsmiddel, mag ontwikkel ná gereelde, herhaalde gebruik van ‘n ontwurmingsmiddel in daardie klas.
- Moenie terselfdertyd gebruik word as piperasienverbindings nie, aangesien die ontwurmingseffekte van pirantel en piperasien teenstrydig kan wees.
- Moenie gebruik word in katjies jonger as 6 weke nie.
- Moenie gebruik word in gevalle van hipersensitiwiteit teenoor die aktiewe bestanddele, of enige van die hulpstowwe nie.
- Moenie gebruik tydens dragtigheid nie; kan wel gebruik word tydens laktasie.
- HOU BUITE BEREIK VAN KINDERS, ONINGELIGTE PERSONE EN DIERE.
- Alhoewel hierdie middel breedvoerig onder ‘n wye verskeidenheid toestande getoets is, mag dit faal as gevolg van verskeie redes. Indien dit vermoed word, raadpleeg ‘n veearts en verwittig die registrasiehouer.

GEBRUIKSAANWYSINGS – GEBRUIK SLEGS SOOS AANGEDUI
Slegs vir enkele orale toediening.
Om toediening van die korrekte dosis te verseker, moet die liggaamsmassa so akkuraat as moontlik bepaal word.
Dosering
Die aanbevole dosis is 20 mg/kg pirantel (57,5 mg/kg pirantelembonaat) en 5 mg/kg prasikwantel. Dit is gelykstaande aan 1 tablet per 4 kg liggaamsmassa.
Liggaamsmassa (kg) | Tablette |

- Die tablet kan direk aan die kat gegee word, of indien nodig, kan dit verberg word in kos.
- Verseker dat die kat die tablet opeet.
- Met wurmbesmetting, veral by katjies, kan volledige eliminasie nie verwag word nie, dus kan die risiko van besmetting by mense voortduur. Herhaaldelike behandelings moet dus toegedien word, met ‘n geskikte produk vir rondewurms, elke 14 dae tot en met 2 tot 3 weke nadat die katjies gespeen is. Indien enige tekens van besmetting voortduur, of weer verskyn, raadpleeg ‘n veearts.
- Volwasse katte moet gereeld ontwurm word, elke 3 tot 6 maande, om wurmbesmetting te beheer.
