Worming question

tort22 · 12-03-2014, 06:36 PM

Hi all,
I've just had the results of Squirt's worm count and unfortunately came back with 1000epg pinworm

This will be my first time worming Squirt. I'm about to purchase Panacur 5g rabbit paste 18.75%. What is the dosage and how frequently do I continue to administer it and for how long?

Appreciate your help

I have used panacur 18.75% paste, it's 1 graduation per 1000grms weight of tort, so if your tort is 500gms for example then its half a graduation, and 250gms is a quarter of a graduation, that's if you get the paste of course

And I have administered 2 doses 2 weeks apart (1 dose every 2 weeks) and retest at 4 weeks was clear x

Hi Bev, thank you so much that's a huge help to me, I've been a worrying wreck all day after seeing the results, I feel like a bad mummy! Panacur now on order!
