sllebasi Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 To cut a long story short, I have been giving my dog Topitran 3 monthly worming medication. Over the weekend, I went to five pet shops and vets and could not buy any. After discussing with and looking at the ingredient list, I bought Paratek. Gave it to her yesterday and this morning she has been vomited. (hence the reason why i dont give drontal anymore) Unfortunately (and a really bad decision on my part) I gave her some different food last night as well, so I am not 100% sure, but given her past history of reacting to worming medication, I am now going to have to suss out, where to either buy Topitran from or another brand. (it appears that some medications have a meat based ingredient in them which I need to avoid) What other brands of the 3 monthly medication are there apart from drontal?

Crisovar Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 There are many different brands of Intestinal Wormers , Ambex, Drontal, Canex, Canine Allwormer, Endogard, Closasole, Milbemax, Paragard, Popantel. The ingredients vary, and yes you may have upset your dog with a change of food and a wormer at the same time. If she is sensitive to wormers, maybe do a faecal test to see if she does in fact need worming before you dose her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShesaLikeableBiBear Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 We have been using Sentinel Spectrum for six years with no issues. In that time we have changed their diet from Nutro to a homemade diet and then to Black Hawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becks Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 or you could use diatomaceous earth as a wormer, no chemicals, so no reactions to them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
