Allermyl has helped calm Rosie's skin
From UndisclosedComments about Virbantel (pyrantel pamoate/praziquantel) 16ozOur veterinarian suggested Allermyl to help calm Rosie's irritated skin, she has dust and storage mite allergies, and her skin becomes inflamed and darkened. It really does help her skin clear, but remember to follow the directions on the bottle, wash twice, and leave soapy foam on for 10 minutes each time.-

Get Rid Of Allergies !
From UndisclosedComments about Virbantel (pyrantel pamoate/praziquantel)This is THE best shampoo for dogs with allergies, and I have tried them all! I always do a double bath and use a rubber pronged scrubber in a circular motion. Great results every time. It should be noted that some dogs can require in addition, an allergy shot every six weeks depending upon the severity. -

Inexpensive worm treatment
From TexasComments about Virbantel (pyrantel pamoate/praziquantel)I needed to deworm all 5 of my dogs without having to incur vet bills. I know what tapeworms look like, so I didn't need a diagnosis, only the treatment. This product got rid of the tapeworms for a reasonable price and quick delivery. I will probably buy this product on a regular basis, because worms tend to come back. -
Good wormer
From Colorado, USAComments about Virbantel (pyrantel pamoate/praziquantel)I have multiple dogs and try to keep them on the same deworming schedule. My vet gave me this for one dog. I was so glad to find that I could get it for the others without bringing them all in for a check. Their coats improved dramatically, weren't dragging themselves, and general energy increased. Great product!

I have 2 30 mg tabs given to me June 21. The envelope says exp 8/21. What is the mfg info on shelf life? Surely it is longer than 2 months, although if I give them now, they would have to be good for ten months. Thankyou?
-
Once the expiration date has passed there is no guarantee that the medicine will be safe and effective. The manufacturer does not provide data regarding the rate of drug degradation after the expiration date. It is not recommended to use expired medications due to potential health risks.

What is the recommended dosage? Is it once, twice or more per event? thanks?
-
The manufacturer's recommended dosage is based on weight of the animal, which we have included below. Virbantel is used as a single treatment to kill and control intestinal worms, and does not prevent new ones. Re-treatment may be necessary if your pet is re-infected with worms, but it should be determined by your veterinarian. The deworming schedule may vary depending on the climate where you live and the activity of your dog. Body Weight 30mg Tablet 114mg Tablet 6-12 lbs. 1 12.1-25 lbs. 2 25.1-50 lbs. 1 50.1-100 lbs. 2 100.1 -150 lbs. 3 150.1-200 lbs. 4

Do I need a prescription for virbac? I have a small kennel. Can I buy a whole bottle vs per pill? If so, what is the cost for the 114mg bottle??
-
Susan, The Virbantel does not require a prescription. It is priced per tablet so you can buy 50 tablets that come in a bottle but it would still be sold per tablet. The 114mg tablets are $8.99 per tablet so for the bottle of 50, it would be roughly $450. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Is 30 mg Virantel Tablet safe for 7 pound cat??
-
Kerry, Virbantel (pyrantel pamoate/ praziquantel) is an over-the-counter dewormer used to treat a variety of parasites found in dogs. Manufacturer states the medication is used for worm control in dogs. The manufacturer does not state dosing for use in cats. However, there have been cases of this medication being used in cats and veterinarians may prescribe this for off-label usage in cats. Contact your cat’s veterinarian for further assistance regarding use and dosage. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Is this product really, really fragrance free? I have severe allergies and cannot tolerate the shampoo currently used by my vet on my kitty. I would like to buy your product to take with me the next time I have my cat groomed.?
-
Danny, The labeling on Allermyl shampoo indicates that it is dye- and fragrance-free. The intended purpose of the shampoo is to help manage allergic skin conditions on dogs and cats, not necessarily airborne allergens; though it may be beneficial in that respect as well, there is no information provided. If you are interested in the most current ingredient information, the manufacturer, Virbac, can be contacted at (800) 338-3659. Thank you, VetRxDirect

could heart guard and verbantel given within a couple of days of each other cause poisoning or severe liver reaction?
-
Barbara, Virbantel and Heartgard Plus are generally safe and would not cause poisoning separately or together. Both products contain pyrantel, which has a very wide margin of safety. Heartgard also contains ivermectin which is very safe. Virbantel also contains praziquantel which is also very safe. It is always a good idea to separate treatments like these by several days or weeks if possible. Any medicine can cause idiosyncratic (rare) reactions. Ask your pet's veterinarian about other questions regarding these medications. Thank you, VetRxDirect
