Api-San Prazicide Complex drops on the withers against all parasites for kittens from 189 rub.

The drug Prazicide is intended for the treatment of diseases in dogs and cats caused by parasites. Roundworms, tapeworms and trematodes pose a particular danger to pets.

Entering the animal's body with food or through the soil, the parasites penetrate into the internal organs and also migrate through the bloodstream throughout the body, causing great harm to it. Helminths feed on living tissue, valuable substances, microelements, and vitamins, causing acute shortages in animals. In addition, they poison the body with toxic waste from their vital activity. All this leads to suppression of vital functions, weakening of the animal, and an increased risk of various diseases.

The drug should not be within reach of children and animals.

By following all these simple rules, the owner will protect himself and his pet. In this case, treatment with Prazicide will relieve unpleasant symptoms, bring only the desired therapeutic effect, and will not harm the health of the animal.

How does it work on parasites?

It doesn’t matter whether suspension, tablets or drops are used to treat a cat against parasites, but all of them will disrupt the transmission of nerve impulses, which in turn leads to paralysis and death of helminths.

Prazicide is a potent agent; its components are equally effective in killing eggs, larvae and adults.

Tablets and suspension perfectly destroy various parasites, as a result, nematodosis, cestodosis, mixed infestations are cured, and roundworms and tapeworms are easily treated.

The effect of the drops is even broader, because they kill not only entoparasites, but also ectoparasites located on the skin and fur of the animal.

Indications

Used for the treatment and annual prevention of helminthiases in pets (cats and dogs).

Effective against the following helminthic infestations:

Toxocara canis ( toxocara ) are helminths whose main host is the dog. They can also parasitize the human body, causing the disease “toxocariasis.” In the animal's body, parasites actively multiply and grow. Once a worm egg enters a dog’s body, it hatches and begins its life stage as a larva. In the small intestine, it pierces a blood vessel and spreads throughout the body through the bloodstream, mainly lingering in the lungs of the animal, where it parasitizes for 10-14 days. At this time, the pet is bothered by an obsessive cough with difficult to separate sputum. The sputum along with the larvae is re-swallowed after “coughing up” and enters the gastrointestinal tract again. Symptoms: At the hatching stage – short-term stool disorders.
At the larval stage - an imitation of a cold with symptoms of bronchitis, without a rise in temperature.
Allergization of the pet's body due to poisoning by waste products of the worm (dermatitis, baldness, eczema).
An increase in the abdomen in volume at the last stage of development of the parasite.
Damage to internal organs during migration.
Ulceration of the intestinal mucosa when located in the gastrointestinal tract cavity.
Worm secretions with feces and vomit.
Gastrointestinal obstruction may develop.

Tohocara mistax is a helminth from the genus of roundworms. It mainly affects feline pets. It can also cause disease in the animal owner - toxaria. An adult helminth has the appearance of a cream-colored worm up to 10 cm in length. The life cycle is similar to that of Toxocara canis. Mature females can lay up to 100 thousand eggs. It is important that the parasite can enter the kitten’s digestive tract through mother’s milk. The disease proceeds without pronounced manifestations.

Toxascaris leonina are roundworms that parasitize both cats and dogs. Light yellow parasites, body length up to 10 cm. The life cycle of the parasite is similar to previous helminths. They are capable of affecting the animal’s body both due to intoxication with waste products and due to mechanical blockage (balls of worms) of the intestines. The parasite can also cause toxaria in humans. The symptom complex is the same.

Uncinaria stenocephala - belongs to the genus of nematodes. It is a helminth with a body length of up to 16 mm with a powerful oral capsule containing 2 semi-lunar-shaped cutting plates. It can affect not only dogs, but also humans, penetrating into the skin: clinically, the disease manifests itself as dermatitis or urticaria, accompanied by intense itching and urticarial rashes. They die on their own within a few weeks. The development cycle is similar to previous worms.

Trichuris vulpis - belongs to the whipworms, has a characteristic whip shape with a thread-like front part and a club-shaped tail of a whitish-red color up to 5 cm in length. The larva hatches in the small intestine, then continues its life path in the large intestine. A mature female can lay more than 20 thousand eggs per day. It can affect humans with the development of trichuriasis. Our smaller brothers have symptoms. The symptoms are the same.

Ancylostoma caninum – mainly dogs are infected. The crooked head is pale pink in color, up to 2 cm long; the anterior mouth part has tooth-like outgrowths. The life cycle and symptoms are similar to those of the whipworm. A special feature is the ability to penetrate the skin. Each individual “drinks” up to 0.5 ml of blood per day. Can infect humans, causing hookworm infection.

Echinococcus granulosus – is a tapeworm, mainly parasitizing canines. In humans it causes echinococcosis, the symptoms of which are here. In the human body, it forms echinococcal cysts, mainly affecting the liver, with a diameter of up to several tens of cm. The tapeworm itself consists of a head with 4 suckers and hooks, as well as 3-4 segments. Canines become infected by eating the internal organs of other animals with echinococcosis blisters. It reaches a mature individual in 2-3 months, each segment contains up to 800 eggs. Dogs exhibit:

emaciation;

anemia;

unstable stool;

life expectancy up to 5 months.

Alveococus multilocularis is a tapeworm whose definitive host is canids; it causes alviococcosis in humans. The mature body consists of a head with suckers, to which 3-6 segments are attached. The life cycle is similar to the life cycle of echinococcus, the symptom complex is the same.

Mesocestoides lineatus – dogs are the definitive hosts and causes mesocestoidosis. It can also affect the human body. Dogs become infected by ingesting ticks containing helminth larvae. It parasitizes mainly in the small intestine and grows within a month. Manifestations are similar to other helminthiases.

Dipylidium caninum is the causative agent of dilipidosis and belongs to the class of tapeworms. It can infect humans only if an infected flea is ingested. It most often parasitizes the body of pets. The length can reach 70 cm, and also consists of a head and segments with eggs. The life cycle is similar to that of a mesocestode.

Diphyllobotrium latum – tapeworm, broad tapeworm. It infects through raw fish, so felines are more likely to suffer from helminthiasis. It also affects humans, but cats cannot be a source of helminthiasis. Causes diphyllobothriasis. The length of the helminth can reach several meters. About a million eggs per day leave the host's body in feces. The manifestation of helminthiasis is similar to previous nosologies.

Multiceps multiceps is a sheep brainworm, a type of tapeworm. It parasitizes the brain of sheep and ends its life cycle in the body of the definitive host of the canine family. Humans can be an intermediate host, just like sheep (symptoms manifest as brain damage: loss of mental skills, visual fields, seizures, personality degeneration). The manifestation of helminthiasis in dogs is similar to the manifestation of other helminthic infestations.

Giardia is a flagellated protozoan. Mainly affects the small intestine. The disease is manifested by allergic skin reactions and impaired absorption in the small intestine during digestion.

The mechanism of action of the drug is based on paralyzing the muscle fibers of the helminth and blocking energy metabolism, which leads to the death of the parasite. The helminths come out in the feces already dead.

Instructions for use of prazicide

The nuances of using the drug depend on the pharmacological form. The box always contains detailed instructions for use, so do not neglect to study them.

Prazicide suspension and tablets are designed for oral administration with a strict dosage according to the cat’s weight. It is difficult to calculate the correct dose for a small kitten; it is better for them to purchase a suspension specifically for kittens. If the cat itself is small in size, then the suspension is also convenient thanks to the dispenser syringe.
