T. Procox is used to treat dogs that are infected, or that the veterinary surgeon suspects of being infected, with two types of parasite at the same time, roundworms and coccidia. The full list of roundworms and coccidia against which Procox is effective can be found in the summary of product characteristics (SPC). http://www.ema.europa.eu/ema/index.jsp?curl=pages/medicines/veterinary/medicines/002006/vet_med_000238.jsp&mid=WC0b01ac058008d7a8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We use Baycox (off label for dogs), and regular worming only stuff for intestinal worms. T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenbendazole - Panacur available here which is not available for dogs so if you use it for dogs its off label [ stupid because it is everywhere else] does worms and giardia and coccidia. My vet gave me the dosages etc and its available at all stock feed places. Heaps cheaper than Baycox but you need to give it over two or three days.

tdierikx Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I like Baycox because it's a single dose... and it doesn't taste completely revolting to the pups like some of the tablet dog versions of a cure. But will look into stocking Panacur as well... Thanks Steve! T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
