TermaWorm™ Tablets for Cats & Dogs are our own brand worming tablets, intended for the treatment of all common roundworm and tapeworm found in the UK.
They contain the same ingredients (Praziquantel, Pyrantel/Pyrantel Embonate, Febantel) as the leading brands.
Each film-coated tablet contains Pyrantel embonate 230 mg and Praziquantel 20 mg.
For the treatment of mixed infections caused by the following gastrointestinal roundworms and tapeworms:
Roundworms: Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina,
Tapeworms: Dipylidium caninum, Taenia taeniaeformis, Echinococcus multilocularis.
Do not use in kittens less than 6 weeks of age.
The recommended dose is: 20 mg/kg pyrantel (57.5 mg/kg pyrantel embonate) and 5 mg/kg praziquantel. This is equivalent to 1 tablet per 4 kg bodyweight.
| Body weight | tablets |
| 1.0 - 2.0 kg | ½ |
| 2.1 - 4.0 kg | 1 |
| 4.1 - 6.0 kg | 1 ½ |
| 6.1 - 8.0 kg | 2 |
Administration and duration of treatment
Single oral administration. The tablet should be given directly to the cat, but if necessary can be disguised in food. Wash hands after use.
In ascarid infestation, especially in kittens, complete elimination cannot be expected, so a risk of infection for humans can persist. Repeat treatments should, therefore, be carried out with a suitable roundworm product at 14 day intervals until 2-3 weeks fter weaning.
To ensure administration of a correct dose, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible
Do not use during pregnancy but may be used during lactation.
After doses higher than 5 times the recommended dose, signs of intolerance such as vomiting have been observed.
Fleas serve as intermediate hosts for one common type of tapeworm – Dipylidium caninum. Tapeworm infestation is certain to reoccur unless control of intermediate hosts such as fleas, mice, etc. is undertaken.

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding TermaWorm Tablets for Cats & Dogs, including answers from our team.
Roy Armitage
Our vet is reccommending treating dogs for worms monthly because of the spread of lung worms getting near to our area. Will the general worming tablets work or are special ones required?
Hi Roy,
Unfortunately, the only products that give month long protection from lungworm are prescription-only, such as Advocate, which is a spot-on that covers fleas, mites and most worms (not tapeworm). If you get a prescription from your vet, we can supply Advocate for your dogs. Some vets are happy to put repeats on a prescription to save you some extra money, as you can use the prescription for multiple packs before getting a new one - maybe have a chat about this if there is a lungworm problem in your area.
Lungworm is spread through eating infected slugs/snails, or potentially their slime (which could be on sticks, toys left outside, puddles etc), so if he doesn't eat slugs and snails, his risk is probably very low.
www.lungworm.co.uk/lungworm-map can be used to check the number of cases reported in your area - it's currently 0 so risk is low. The website is good if you'd like to learn more about lungworm too.
Products like TermaWorm cover all other worms and are perfect for routine monthly treatment of all the common roundworm and tapeworm but they don't target lungworm.
I hope this is helpful!
Danielle.
Val
Can the tablets be divided? One dog 22kgs, another 15. How many should they have please?
Hi Val,
Yes, the tablets are scored so you can easily break them into halves. Your 15kg dog will need 1.5 tablets and the 22kg dog will need 2.5 tablets. So if you buy 4 in total, they can share one of them.
You can either feed directly, or mix into food if needed. Hope this helps!
Cathy
Hi how many tablets are in the box please. As I can't see to see how many are in the box. Thank u
Hi Cathy,
We sell the tablet individually, so you can just enter the number you need.
For cats, each tablet treats 4kg. If you have a cat that weighs more than 4kg, you will need to give more than one tablet eg a 6kg cat need 1.5 tablets.
Each dog tablet treats 10kg and each XL tablet for dogs treats 35kg.
I hope this helps!
