How do I know the right dewormer dose for my 3-month-old puppy?

Legally, we are prohibited from providing doses for medications in the absence of a physical exam. Fortunately for you, this information is readily available online. Use the search engine of your choice to find the canine dose for pyrantel pamoate or Strongid. Ideally, you should confirm dosing with your veterinarian before deworming the pup(s).

I am sorry, I am not familiar with this syrup and can also not find it on the internet. There should be a label on the bottle and that should give you a dosage. You will need to know the weight of your dog and calculate the dosage from the instructions on the label. If you cannot find instructions, best ask your pet doctor or the pharmacist where you bought the syrup.

Hi there. I'm afraid I don't know what is available in India, but some good broad-spectrum dewormer brands include Strongid, Drontal, and Panacur - you can see if any of these are available at your local pet stores or online. For dosing, just follow the instructions on the package for your puppy's weight.

The amount of dewormer they get is dependent upon the specific dewormer your are using. There should be instructions on the label about how much to give the puppies based upon the body weight. You can also have them examined by the vet who will be able to get to correct weight and give a dewormer accurately. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Pyrantel would be better to give - I would administer 0.5mls by mouth. You can repeat this up to every 2 weeks until he is 4 months old. Piperazine is really not that effective. If you want to give it you can. The dose would be 1/2 teaspoon.

Hi, it is fine to give the two tablets together as a single dose. The dose is accurate for a 20 kg dog, how often your repeat it will depend on how frequently he comes in contact with parasites. If there are lots of worms in the environment, he could be wormed every 3 months but I would double check with your vet. Hope this helps !

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! There isn't a standard dose just based on weight. We would need to know the name of the drug or brand and it's contents. If the box doesn't tell you how much to give we will recommend contacting your Vet who prescribed the medications to Lucy. I hope this helps!
