  1. Any help appreciated, so I wormed one of my two year old males that was very healthy and built nice with safeguard and a week later he is skinny and his hips and ribs are starting to show??? He drinks water and he eats everyday plenty of food. What's going on?

    Check his stool if there is white tape looking worms in it, its most likely tape worms. One of the best tape worm medication is Praziquantel.

    That's the first thing I thought of to tapes!! They can get voracious!! If in doubt gather up A stool and take it to A vet!

    The safeguard only treats 2 type of tapeworms. If ur dog has the type that fendbenzole doesnt cure, then thats way deprivation is further. Like sai said id use praziquantel, a good wormer that i use is "fish tapes", order on ebay for about $35

    I use Drontal plus. You can buy 6 tablets for about £12 on amazon uk. 1 tablet per 10kg of dog. My dog is still skinny and ribby but has always been that way despite how juch i feed him and even on a good food.

    Drontal

    Wrong fool, you are thinking about DRONCIT which is a brand name of praziquantel that most vets use to prescribe to there patients. All that weed is not helping your memory LMAO.

    Drontal is a UK brand I think.

    "Drontal Tasty Bone Worming Tablet contains 50mg Praziquantel, 144mg Pyrantel Embonate and 150mg Febantel. One tablet per 10kg bodyweight every 3 months Drontal is the only wormer that kills every type of intestinal worm commonly found in UK dogs and cats. Each Drontal bone measures just 17mm long, and has a tasty beef flavour for your dog to enjoy."

    Well after having a look for reviews earlier, other than the ones on their own website, the only comments were from the manufacturer spamming various message boards under different usernames with how good it is and how "he's gonna change the worming game", lol. No comments by other people that I fould.

    Scamadvisor rates the website as fairly safe but set up using free email addresses and split between servers in the US and Denmark.

    The guy claims science behind it but it sounds like a two man band that have set their own indredients based on other wormer but adding in dionacous earth (I cant remember how it's spelt).

    Looks good on paper but don't know how legit, it's rare that you don't get many outside reviews as the website is over 2 years old.

    Probably the main reason most people dont buy worm eradicator is because its cheaper and better to just buy each individual wormer medications by itself as most like to dose things there own way.

    Plus all those different types of wormers ingested all at one time could tax a dogs system.

    I hope you have been giving some type of monthly heart worm medication. One of the most common heart worm medication is Ivermectin which can also take care of other worms except for tape if the dose is high enough, which is 1/2 cc per 50lbs. Humans can also take Ivermectin.
