ACTION Praziquantel Tablets are absorbed, metabolized in the liver and excreted in the bile. Upon entering the digestive tract from the bile, cestocidal activity is exhibited. Following exposure to praziquantel, the tapeworm loses its ability to resist digestion by the mammalian host. Because of this, whole tapeworms, including the scolex, are very rarely passed after administration of praziquantel. In many instances only disintegrated and partially digested pieces of tapeworms will be seen in the stool. The majority of tapeworms are digested and are not found in the feces. USE DIRECTIONS Praziquantel Tablets 34 mg Canine Cestocide may be administered directly per os or crumbled and mixed with the feed. The recommended dosage of praziquantel varies 1 according to body weight. Smaller animals require a relatively larger dosage because of their higher metabolic rate.
