Treats tapeworm infestations caused by Echinococcus, Taenia, Mesocestoides, and Dipylidium caninum.
TENICIPEN 50mg tablets treat infestations caused by cestodes (tapeworms) in dogs and cats. The active substance praziquantel targets Echinococcus spp., Taenia spp., Mesocestoides spp., and Dipylidium caninum. It is effective against both adult and immature stages of these parasites.
Praziquantel works by damaging the parasite's tegument, leading to muscle contraction and paralysis. The parasite then detaches from the intestinal wall and is expelled from the host. This mechanism ensures rapid clearance of the infection.
The recommended dose is 5 mg of praziquantel per kg body weight, equivalent to one tablet per 10 kg. The safety margin is wide, and adverse reactions are rare. In dogs, rare side effects include anorexia, lethargy, diarrhea, and vomiting. In cats, very rare side effects include diarrhea and salivation.
Each tablet contains 50.0 mg of praziquantel as the active substance.
For dogs and cats: treatment of infestations caused by cestodes (tapeworms), including Echinococcus spp. (E. granulosus and E. multilocularis), Taenia spp. (T. hydatigena, T. pisiformis, T. ovis, T. taeniaeformis, and T. multiceps), Mesocestoides spp., and Dipylidium caninum.
Administer orally. The recommended dose is 5 mg of praziquantel per kg body weight, equivalent to 1 tablet per 10 kg as a single dose. Tablets can be given directly or crushed and mixed with food.
