Product Description
Deworming
Worms can be harmful and cause your pet physical discomfort. Some species of worms in cats can also occur in humans. Due to health risks posed to both people and animals, regular deworming treatment is essential for maintaining the health of human and feline family members.
Characteristics of Milpro Dewormer
- Milpro tablets have a delicious meaty flavour, making them easy to feed to your cat. Research has shown that up to 40% of cats will eat the tablet immediately, due to the taste. Fussy cats will probably eat the tablet when mixed in with their normal feed.
- The size and shape of these tablets make it easy for your pet to swallow.
- The tablets are easily broken in two using the scored lines, which is useful for kittens and small cats.
- Milpro is safe to use and is effective against all of the most common types of worms.
Active ingredients
- Milpro contains the active ingredients Milbemycin and Praziquantel:
- Milbemycin is effective against round worms, hook worms and whip worms, and also in the prevention of heart worm disease.
- Praziquantel is effective against tape worms (including the fox tape worm). Tape worms can also be transmitted by fleas, so cats with fleas can also be treated with Milpro to prevent any eggs being transferred from the parasite to your cat.
Milpro tablets come in two types:
- Kitten and small cat 2 kg: These tablets contain 16 mg Milbemycin and 40 mg Praziquantel.

Advice
Standard deworming:
Kittens should be dewormed at the age of 3, 5 and 7 weeks, then monthly until the age of six months. Nursing cats should also always be dewormed as well as their offspring. Adult cats should be dewormed four times a year.Prevention of heart worm
- For prevention of heart worm, we advise using Milpro according to the following schedule:
- Cats in Southern and Eastern Europe (endemic areas) must be protected against worms. They should be treated in the risk area within 30 days of arrival.
- For cats staying less than a month in endemic areas, a one-time treatment, usually shortly after returning home, should prove sufficient to provide complete protection.
- If staying in endemic areas for longer, a monthly schedule is essential. The first treatment is to be administered 30 days after introduction into the risk area, and the last treatment at least one month after leaving.
