Adult Cats and Dogs
Orally administer 2 syringe graduations per 1 kg bodyweight as a single dose (= 100 mg fenbendazole/kg bodyweight). Each 5 g syringe is sufficient to dose up to 9 kg bodyweight as a single dose.

For example to treat a 4 kg cat move the dose locking ring so that the bottom of it lines up with the eighth graduation on the syringe. Depress the syringe plunger to deliver the correct dose. Additional syringes are required for dogs and cats weighing over 9 kg. For dogs and cats weighing over 9 kg two extra syringe graduations are required for each additional 1 kg bodyweight as a single dose.
Treatment should be repeated when natural reinfection with parasitic worms occurs. Routine treatment of adult animals with minimal exposure to infection is advisable 2 to 4 times per year.
More frequent treatment at 6 to 8 weekly intervals is advisable for dogs in kennels and cats in catteries or at breeder`s premises.

Treatment may also be required at 8 and 12 weeks of age.
Thereafter frequency of treatment can be reduced unless the pups remain in kennels or kittens remaining in catteries or breeder`s premises where reinfection occurs more readily.
Pregnant bitches
Owing to the reduced dose rate for treatment of pregnant bitches (i.e. 25 mg fenbendazole/kg bodyweight daily) which can not accurately be attained when using the Panacur Paste 5 g syringe it is recommended that alternative formulations of fenbendazole be used. Pregnant queens Pregnant queens can be safely treated with Panacur Paste but only require a single treatment at the routine adult dose rate. Orally administer 2 syringe graduations per 1 kg bodyweight as a single dose (= 100 mg fenbendazole/kg bodyweight). Each 5 g syringe is sufficient to dose up to 9 kg bodyweight as a single dose.
