HYDATID TAPEWORM - A single dose of Drontal Chewable is all that is required. However, this dose should be repeated every six weeks to ensure that newly acquired hydatid tape worms are expelled before reaching maturiry.

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 acquire offal in order to break the life cycle of the hydatid tapeworm. It should be noted that the hydatid tapeworm poses a severe risk to human health by transmission to humans from infected dogs.
