How does this medication work?
Praziquantel and pyrantel pamoate are the active ingredients in Drontal. The active ingredients in this medication cause spasms, paralysis and eventual death of susceptible parasites. The parasite is either destroyed entirely or passed through your pets feces.

As I am reading these reviews it has occurred to me that some of the negative reviews were because the medicine was not administered properly, this is a one dose pill! It is one pill one time for an adult cat, and if you are dealing with kittens they must be over 2 pounds it is 1/3 of a tablet, the reviews saying we had to stop the medicine after the second night is because they overdosed their kittens. I believe better directions should be given to anyone ordering this medicine. Again this is a one dose medicine and should not be repeated for 2 to 4 weeks only if needed. Pay attention to the directions! And never assume Kittens can handle an adult dose of any medicine.
Very unsatisfied!
According to the label, give 2 tablets a day per cat. I received only 1 tablet in a huge bottle, what a waste of Climate Change, and no suggestion whatsoever when ordering ie... Must order qty. 2 per cat!
Good product!
Thanks for your assistance in acquiring the Drontal for my Shorty cat! He feels much better after receiving the dosage!
Fast and Fabulous
Needed these tablets to get complete my pets procedure to relocating back to Australia. Ordering on Chewy - as above - FAST and Fabulous. Everything is done for you and it arrives pretty much the next day.
Just What Dr. Ordered
Have been using this med for a few years and it works.
Works Great!
Works in a single dose and for multiple types of worms. Nice when you can order it online and get your vet to approve
Drontal works for worms
We have been dealing with tapeworms and nothing seemed to work. Then we tried Drontal and I think it has solved the problem.
Kills tape worm + how to give a pill
Working in cat rescue years ago, this was my preferred wormer. For tapeworm, a second dose is needed in 2 weeks to kill any new hatched eggs! Be sure to read the label for correct dosing. My best luck for giving pills? Use a dropper to give cat a bit of water to moisten their throat. Have pill ready, coated with butter! After giving pill, give a bit more water via dropper and love / praise kitty for being sooooo good! :-) Give kitty a small amount of watered down soft food as a treat and to prevent stomach upset or vomiting. Good luck.
Best de-wormer for cats
Much cheaper than picking up at the vet. Easy to order -- added it to shopping cart and Chewy contacted the vet for the prescription and shipped quickly. This gets rid of tapeworms and other common ones in one dose.
A winner!!!
My cat family was not responding to the unusual “flea & worm medication “ I’ve used for several years. I contacted Chewys Vet office with my concerns and they suggested Drontal. It was a great choice and it Works.
