Key Features and Benefits
1. Broad-Spectrum Parasite Protection
Noworm Plus provides comprehensive protection against various gastrointestinal worms that commonly affect dogs and cats. These parasites can cause serious health problems if not addressed, and this product ensures their effective elimination. It targets the following types of worms:
-
Hookworms: These small parasites, measuring about one-eighth to three-quarters of an inch in length, attach to the intestinal lining using hook-like structures and feed on the host’s blood. This can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, and anemia, especially in young or vulnerable pets. Hookworms are a common concern for pets that spend time outdoors or in areas with contaminated soil.
-
Roundworms: Resembling strands of spaghetti, roundworms are among the most common intestinal parasites in dogs and cats. They can grow several inches long and may be visible in your pet’s feces or vomit. Infected pets might show a pot-bellied appearance, lethargy, poor coat condition, or stunted growth, particularly in puppies and kittens. Roundworms also pose a zoonotic risk, meaning they can potentially transfer to humans, making their removal essential.
-
Whipworms: Approximately two inches long with a whip-like shape—thicker at one end and thinner at the other—whipworms reside in the large intestine. They can cause significant irritation, leading to chronic diarrhea, vomiting, weight loss, and general weakness. Whipworms are particularly resilient in the environment, making a broad-spectrum treatment like Noworm Plus crucial for effective elimination.
-
Tapeworms: These flat, segmented worms can grow up to six inches long inside your pet’s intestines. They often break into smaller segments, which may appear as rice-like grains in your pet’s feces or around their anal area. Tapeworms are typically transmitted through fleas or by ingesting infected animals, such as rodents. Symptoms include mild digestive upset, scooting due to anal irritation, and visible segments in the stool.
By addressing these four major types of worms, Noworm Plus offers a thorough solution that tackles both nematodes (roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms) and cestodes (tapeworms), ensuring your pet is protected from a wide range of parasitic threats.
2. Powerful Active Ingredients
The effectiveness of Noworm Plus stems from its carefully formulated blend of three potent active ingredients, each targeting specific types of worms for a comprehensive deworming effect:
-
Praziquantel: Highly effective against tapeworms (cestodes), Praziquantel works by disrupting the tapeworm’s outer membrane, causing it to disintegrate and be expelled from the pet’s body through natural digestion. It targets tapeworms at all stages of their life cycle, ensuring both adult worms and their segments are eradicated.
-
Pyrantel Pamoate: This ingredient focuses on hookworms and roundworms (nematodes). It paralyzes the worms’ nervous systems, preventing them from clinging to the intestinal walls. Once paralyzed, the worms are expelled through the pet’s feces. Pyrantel Pamoate is safe and effective for both dogs and cats, making it a vital part of this broad-spectrum formula.
-
Febantel: Effective against whipworms and other nematodes, Febantel is metabolized into fenbendazole in the body, which disrupts the worms’ energy metabolism, leading to their death. This ingredient ensures that whipworms, which can be particularly stubborn, are effectively eliminated, providing relief from the chronic symptoms they cause.
The combined action of these three ingredients ensures that Noworm Plus delivers a reliable and thorough deworming treatment, addressing a wide range of parasitic infections in a single dose.
3. Convenient and Easy-to-Use Tablets
-
Pack Size: Each box contains two tablets, sufficient for a single treatment cycle or as part of a regular deworming schedule, depending on your pet’s needs and your veterinarian’s advice.
-
Administration: The tablets are designed for easy administration. They can be given directly by placing the tablet in your pet’s mouth and ensuring they swallow it, or they can be crushed and mixed with a small amount of food to simplify the process, especially for pets that resist taking medication. The tablets are generally palatable, reducing the stress of administering them.
-
Dosage Flexibility: The recommended dosage is one tablet per 10 kg of body weight. For example, a 20 kg dog would require two tablets, while a 5 kg cat would need half a tablet. Always consult your veterinarian to confirm the appropriate dosage for your pet, ensuring safe and effective treatment.
4. Health and Well-Being Benefits
-
Symptom Relief: By eliminating gastrointestinal worms, Noworm Plus helps relieve symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, weight loss, lethargy, and poor coat condition, which are commonly associated with worm infections. This leads to a noticeable improvement in your pet’s energy levels, appetite, and overall demeanor.
-
Prevents Complications: Untreated worm infections can lead to serious health issues, including anemia, malnutrition, and intestinal blockages, particularly in young or immunocompromised pets. Regular use of Noworm Plus helps prevent these complications, ensuring your pet remains healthy and active.
-
Zoonotic Protection: Some worms, like roundworms, can be transmitted to humans, posing a health risk, especially to children or individuals with weakened immune systems. Treating your pet with Noworm Plus reduces the risk of zoonotic transmission, protecting your family as well as your pet.
Usage Instructions
-
Dosage: Administer one tablet per 10 kg of body weight. For example, a 10 kg pet requires one tablet, a 20 kg pet requires two tablets, and a 5 kg pet requires half a tablet. Consult your veterinarian to confirm the correct dosage, especially for pets with specific health conditions or for very small animals where precise dosing is critical.
-
Administration Tips: For best results, administer the tablet on an empty stomach to ensure maximum absorption of the active ingredients. If your pet resists taking the tablet directly, you can wrap it in a treat, such as a piece of cheese or meat, or mix it into a small portion of wet food. Ensure your pet consumes the entire dose for effective treatment.
-
Treatment Frequency: Depending on your pet’s lifestyle and risk of exposure to worms (e.g., outdoor pets or those in multi-pet households), your veterinarian may recommend deworming every three to six months as a preventative measure. Puppies and kittens, which are more susceptible to worms, may require more frequent treatments during their first year.
-
Monitoring: After administering Noworm Plus, monitor your pet for any signs of adverse reactions, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or lethargy, and contact your veterinarian if you notice anything unusual. You may also notice dead worms in your pet’s feces within a few days of treatment, which is a normal sign that the medication is working.
Ideal For
-
Dogs and cats of all ages, from puppies and kittens to adult and senior pets, provided the dosage is adjusted according to their weight and health status.
-
Pets at risk of worms, such as those that spend time outdoors, hunt, or live in multi-pet environments where the risk of worm transmission is higher.
-
Pet owners seeking preventative care to maintain their pet’s health through regular deworming, preventing infestations before they become a problem.
Precautions and Safety Information

Veterinary Consultation: Always consult your veterinarian before administering Noworm Plus, especially if your pet is pregnant, nursing, or has a pre-existing medical condition. Your vet can confirm the presence of worms through a fecal exam and recommend the appropriate treatment plan.
-
