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.-

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.

According to the product label re-treatment of your dog may be necessary as determined by laboratory fecal examination and/or if your dog is living where re-infections are likely to occur. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis and prevention of re-infection. In case of re-infection with tapeworms (Dipylidium caninum), consult your veterinarian for advice on how to remove fleas from the dog and the environment. Please consult your veterinarian regarding any further questions or concerns regarding the Virbantel (pyrantel pamoate/praziquantel).

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

I gave my 17 pound Boston Terrier one dose on 3/22 for roundworms. She is now exhibiting the same symptoms again, although I took her to the vet and they said there were no eggs in her stool. Should I redose her??
-
Mega, Virbantel is an over-the-counter medication that is effective in treatment and control of roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms. Re-treatment may be necessary as determined by laboratory fecal examination or if you dog is in an area where reinfection is likely to occur. In this case, your veterinarian did not receive a positive test, but if symptoms continue you should follow-up with your pet's veterinary clinic. For guidance and usage on Virbantel please contact your veterinarian. Thank you, VetRxDirect
