Product Overview
Prazimec Oral Paste is a veterinary deworming formulation designed for effortless oral administration to animals. This palatable paste combines Ivermectin and Praziquantel – two powerful antiparasitic compounds that effectively combat various internal parasites. Offering a practical solution for parasite management, Prazimec helps maintain optimal health in both companion animals and livestock through its convenient delivery system.
Uses
This oral paste is clinically proven to treat and prevent parasitic infestations in animals, targeting gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, cestodes (tapeworms), and other internal parasites. Veterinarians frequently prescribe Prazimec for dogs, cats, equines, and production animals to eradicate and protect against diverse parasitic organisms. By eliminating harmful parasites, the medication contributes to improved animal health and comfort.
How to Use
For proper administration:
1. Confirm the animal’s mouth is clear of food debris
2. Position the applicator at the back of the tongue
3. Depress the plunger to deliver the prescribed dose
4. Allow complete swallowing before releasing the animal
Follow your veterinarian’s recommended treatment schedule for optimal parasite control.
