How often should I worm my cat?

Research has shown that the majority of cats in the UK should be wormed monthly, based on their home environment and lifestyle such as scavenging, hunting, and spending time outdoors.* However, there may be situations where less frequent treatment is required and it’s best to speak to your vet about the most appropriate worming frequency for your cat.

*ESCCAP Worm Control in Dogs and Cats Guidelines, Feb 2020

Worming Made Easy

Spot on use for external application to the skin. The cat should be accurately weighed prior to treatment to ensure that the correct pipette size is used.

Remove one pipette from package. Hold pipette in upright position, twist and pull off cap and use the opposite end of the cap to break the seal.

Part the fur on the cat’s neck at the base of the skull until skin is visible. Place the tip of the pipette on the skin and squeeze firmly several times to empty the contents directly onto the skin. Application on the base of the skull will minimise the ability of the cat to lick the product off.

Apply only to the skin surface and on intact skin. NOT to be administered by any other route.

STORAGE

Store in the original package to protect from moisture.

Store below 25°C

INGREDIENTS

0.35 ml pipette contains 30 mg praziquantel and 7.5 mg emodepside.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not use in kittens under 8 weeks of age or weighing less than 0.5 kg.

Do not use in sick or debilitated animals.

Do not use in known cases of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients.

Shampooing or immersion of the animal in water directly after treatment may reduce efficacy of the product.

Avoid the treated cat or other cats in the household licking the site of application when it is wet.

Salivation (drooling) and vomiting may occur in very rare cases. Mild and transient neurological disorders such as ataxia (unsteady or stumbling gait) or tremor may occur in very rare cases. These effects are thought to occur as a result of the cat licking the application site immediately after treatment. In very rare cases following administration of the product transient alopecia (hair loss), pruritus (itchiness) and/or inflammation were observed at the application site.

Can be used during pregnancy and lactation.

Keep out of sight and reach of children and wash hands after use.

I recently got a small kitten and used this product to get rid of any worms it might have. However, I have not seen any signs of the worms present. This treatment was a precaution. It was easy to apply and there were no side effects.

Can this be used for 8 week old kittens

  • VioVet Staff

Drowsiness

sian George (sian2464)

  • VioVet customer since 2016
  • From: Powys, United Kingdom

Hi, do you know if this could cause drowsiness in kittens?
I have applied it to my 8 week old kitten (0.670g). And ever since she's been sleeping and hasn't eaten at all. It was given at 11am and it is now after 8pm.
(I will be contacting our vets if she hasn't improved by morning. )

  • VioVet Staff

Drowsiness/lethargy is not a listed side effect of this medication. If the signs persist then I recommend contacting your vet as it is possible there is another underlying issue causing these symptoms. If this is related to Dronspot then it will also need reporting as a new adverse reaction by your vet.

Hi, Can this be used on a nursing cat with kittens?

Leo

  • VioVet customer since 2021
  • From: Lincolnshire, United Kingdom

I have a stray cat with 2 week old kittens riddled with tapeworm, so felt panacur wouldn't be effective enough. Or is there another alternative? Thank you.

  • VioVet Staff

Dronspot can be used safely during pregnancy and lactation on your nursing queen. Do not use it in kittens under 8 weeks of age or weighing less than 0.5 kg though.

23 June 2019 at 2:12pm

Janie Castle

  • VioVet customer since 2019

Hi Janie,

Hope this helps.

Does it eradicate all types of worms?

Janet Bell

I understood that the spot on type of wormer only works for one type of intestinal worms which can infect cats. Can you confirm that it will eradicate all the types of worms in cats, as per the tablet type of wormer.

  • VioVet Staff

Dronspot is effective against roundworm and tapeworm. It kills every type of intestinal worm commonly found in UK cats.

30 October 2018 at 8:31pm

Tapeworm

Bianca Kubler

  • VioVet customer since 2015
  • From: Hertfordshire, United Kingdom

I use Droncit for my cats for tapeworm and alternate with Panacur powder every three months. Does this new product deal with tapeworm or will I still need to use Droncit?

  • VioVet Staff

Dronspot is effective against roundworm and tapeworm.
