Why Choose Drontal Oral Suspension for Puppies?
Drontal puppy wormer works fast to kill roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms, giving you peace of mind that you are helping keep your puppy and family away from internal parasites.
Worm infestation can be fatal in puppies, why risk it?
Young puppies are highly susceptible to roundworm infection. They can be transmitted via the milk and can also be born with an infestation from exposure in their mother’s womb. Intestinal worms steal valuable nutrients your puppy needs to grow and live a happy and healthy life. If left untreated, worms can lead to serious health complications for both puppies and people. Worming your puppy is easy with Drontal oral suspension for puppies.

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Drontal Puppy Liquid Wormer, including answers from our team.
saju
we have a new puppy 8 weeks old (collie so restricted products). Vet has recommended drontal until older/weighs more before using products are contraindicated . we have an older dog- do we need to worm her more frequently to match puppy rather than 3 mth cycle? (to avoid cross contamination)?
Yes, Drontal Puppy is safe for use in your 8 week old collie. You are probably concerned about ivermectin based wormers as collies can have a gene that means they are sensitive to these. Fortunately almost all routine wormers for dogs do not contain this ingredient anymore, I cannot think of any that still do.
You should worm your pup at 8, 10 and 12 weeks of age then monthly until 6 months old. You do not need to change the fequency of worming your older dog, however it does make to synchronise their worming to the same 3 monthly cycle when they are both wormed at this frequency.

I have just wormed my 12 wk old lab puppy with drontal. How long do I have to wait before I can use the normal frontline on him and would this be the same for adult dogs
Frontline and Drontal contain different ingredients and so you do not need to wait between dosing.
Yes, you should follow the standard dosing for your 12 week dog. You will need to choose the correct pipette based on their weight.
What is max age of puppy ?
My puppy is 5 months old. Up to how old is this medicine suitable to give him?
The maximum age for using this medication is 1 year old. It is worth noting it does not cover tapeworms and so it is recommended to use Drontal Tasty Bone Wormer tablets instead once your pup can eat solid food and is over 2kg.

Will Drontal puppy be enough treatment for my 7kg 20 month old Italian greyhound. Or will he need the tablets. Thank you
It is not recommended to use Drontal Puppy in dogs over 1 year of age. It would be easiest to give your 7kg dog 1 x Drontal Tasty Bone Wormer Tablet instead. This can be crushed into the food if required.
Stuart Ridler
Can this product be used alongside Advocate worm & flea treatment?
Yes these can be used safely together, however you are already covering roundworms with the Advocate and Drontal Puppy only covers roundworms. You will need to use a tapewormer alongside Advocate, Droncit would be a good choice for this.

How often should I worm my puppy ? He is 16 weeks & was last wormed at 12 weeks. Do I continue worming monthly until 6 months or move to a 3 month schedule now ? There seems to be conflicting advice online
It is recommended to worm at 2, 5, 8, 10 and 12 weeks then monthly until 6 months old. At this point standard advice is worming every 3 months however recent evidence suggest that high risk dogs (scavengers or those house with children/elderly/immunosuppressed individuals) should be wormed monthly.
We recommend switching from the Drontal Puppy Liquid onto the Drontal Tasty Bone Wormer Tabs once your pet is over 2kg and weaned as this will be easier to administer.

How much should I buy to treat 7 puppies
This depends on the weight of your puppies, the dose is 1 ml suspension/kg body weight and should only be given to puppies older than 2 weeks and weighing greater than 0.6kg. It is very hard to predict how heavy your puppies will be, if you know the estimated puppy weight for your dog then you can work this out.
If you are unsure then I advise ordering the 100ml bottle as this is more cost effective. If stored correctly then it will last 12 weeks after opening before it expires which should cover every worming dose required until your pups are old enough for tabletable wormers.
Drontal Xl
My puppy is 6 months and weighs 27kg - can I give her 1 Drontal XL (up to 35kg) tablet or does she have to have Drontal Puppy wormer.
I recommend dosing your dog with 3 x Drontal Tasty Bone Wormer tablets instead as 1 tablet treats up to 10kg. The XL tablet will be a slight overdose for your 27kg dog. Please get in touch at [email protected] if you have any further specific questions.
