Hydatid Tapeworm: Dogs should not be fed, or allowed to feed on, offal from any species. Dogs in hydatid areas should be treated every 6 weeks. It is important to ensure that the dog does not eat offal in order to break the life cycle of the Hydatid Tapeworm. Do not allow access to the carcase of any dead animals.
Other tapeworms: Treat every 3 months.
Note: If the animal is still passing segments after a normal treatment, these probably belong to Spirometra erinacei which belongs to a different family of tapeworms. It requires 4 times the normal dose of Droncit® for removal.
