Panacur Dosage for Dogs
Panacur 150mg is a trusted antiparasitic treatment for dogs, widely used to eliminate gastrointestinal worms such as roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and certain tapeworms. The correct dosage of Panacur is essential to ensure effective treatment while maintaining your dog’s safety and comfort.
The general dosage guideline for Panacur 150mg in dogs is 50 mg of Fenbendazole per kilogram (22.7 mg/lb) of body weight, administered once daily for 3 consecutive days. For example, a 10 kg (22 lb) dog would typically require 500 mg of Fenbendazole per day—meaning just over three Panacur 150mg tablets daily during the treatment course.
The tablets can be given directly or mixed with a small amount of food to ease administration. For puppies or dogs with recurrent infections, your veterinarian may recommend repeating the course or using a longer dosing schedule.
Panacur is safe for use in puppies over 6 weeks old, pregnant dogs (in most cases), and senior dogs, but it’s always best to follow your vet’s advice. Accurate dosing is crucial to eliminate all life stages of worms and prevent reinfection.
