How Panacur Works to Treat Worms in Dogs
Panacur 150mg is a widely trusted deworming medication used to treat various internal parasite infections in dogs. Its active ingredient, Fenbendazole, is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic that effectively targets and eliminates gastrointestinal worms such as roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and some tapeworms.
Panacur 150mg works by disrupting the energy metabolism of parasites. It binds to a protein called tubulin within the worm's cells, which prevents glucose absorption—a vital energy source for survival. Without the ability to take in glucose, the worms become weak, die, and are naturally expelled from the dog’s digestive tract.
Typically administered over a course of 3 to 5 days, Panacur 150mg comes in tablet, paste, or granule form, allowing easy mixing with food. It is well-tolerated by most dogs and is often used safely in puppies, adult dogs, pregnant females, and even in dogs with sensitive stomachs under veterinary guidance.
Regular deworming with Panacur not only treats active infestations but also helps prevent future infections, promoting your dog’s overall health. If your pet shows signs of worm infestation—such as weight loss, diarrhea, or scooting—consult your vet about starting treatment with Panacur 150mg for effective parasite control.
