Drontal plus is needed by dogs and cats for helping them to get rid of various infections caused by worms. An accidental ingestion of the eggs of these worms by humans, can result in great damage to their system when the larvae grows inside their bodies. Some of these infections, such as Toxocara canis [present in dogs], and T.cati [present in cats], can cause permanent damage to eyesight in human beings, as well as damage other organs. The eggs of Hookworms hatch in the soil, and their larvae enter the skin of animals, or humans, making their way through the bloodstream to other organs in the body.
Drontal plus is something of a wonder-drug for dogs and cats. Praziquantel [used to treat humans also for various worm infections], is a broad-based anthelmintic that acts on the helminths [worms] by increasing a calcium influx, inhibiting glucose uptake and lowering their glycogen level, which results in paralysis in the adult parasites. It, however, has no effect on the juvenile schistosomes. Pyrantel pamoate is a depolarizing neuromuscular agent, which acts on vulnerable worms, causing a neuromuscular paralysis in them. Febantel is also said to deplete the energy level of the worms, by inhibiting the glucose uptake, thereby leading to paralysis. The paralysed worms are expelled through feces.
Pets who are infected by E.multilocularis and are exposed to wild rodents, require to be re-treated at intervals of 21-26 days, to prevent shedding of infectious eggs, as these can cause formation of multilocular cysts in the lungs, liver and other body organs. This can be dangerous for humans also, for if the eggs of this parasite are ingested, it can lead to serious health problems, beginning with the formation of cysts.
Sometimes, though the adult worms are killed, the eggs of the hookworms or roundworms keep getting passed out with the feces, even for a week after the first course of treatment is over. In this case, a stool test is necessary to determine the presence of eggs in the stool; if these are still present, then your pet will have to be re-treated.
Drontal Plus available that can be used as a preventive for infection caused by worms, so regular de-worming has to be done. It is recommended that pets should be given a de-worming medicine once every 3 months.
