Two pills, 45lbs and greater, one time treatment depending on your dogs weight45-60 lbs - 1 pill61-90 lbs - 1.5 pill91- 120 -    2 pills

Question 2

What is the dosage?

Accepted Answer

I gave my 84lb. dog one and half and my 60lb one pill. It's been 2 weeks and worms have disappeared from their stool, hope for good.

Question 3

I see the packet comes with 2 chewable tablets. Is that 1 treatment or 2?

Accepted Answer

hi,it depends on your dog's weight. If the weight is 45-60 lbs, then 1 tablet per treatment is enough and the second tablet can be used next time if needed. If the weight is 61-90 lbs then you must use 1.5 tablets per treatment and if the weight is over 91 lbs, then you must use 2 tablets per treatment. Take care.

Question 4

How often do you use this treatment?

Accepted Answer

I live in Montana on 20 acres. My Brittany roams freely for her multiple daily constitutionals for 15 minutes each time. She is exposed to deer, elk, bears, mountain lions, coyotes, foxes, ground squirrels, etc. Unfortunately, like most dogs, she eats droppings. But because of these predators, I will not put a muzzle on her. So, in the past, I have done daily parasite (worms & eggs) stool counts over 6 months to evaluate the parasite threat to her.

I treat her for 60# every 6 weeks. Then, I repeat in one week to kill worms that have hatched from eggs during that week.  This has been effective for my pets. 
I am not a vet, but I am a physician.  I only believe in Evidence Based Medicine. This is a topic poorly covered in journals. I cannot justify the expensive weekly treatments weekly for 3 wks.  That has been no more effective than my carefully chosen treatment. My daughter's Yorkie, that never leaves the solid fenced yard or the house, is wormed every 6 months & is slightly over a very healthy 12 years old.

I would add one thing for the FIRST treatment of an long-untreated dog:  if by parasite stool count you feel that your pet is Heavily infected (or VERY loose stools/blood), treat, repeat in one AND in four weeks.   I hope that this helps you.
