Pyrantel pamoate 115.30 mg/g (equivalent to 40.0 mg/g of pyrantel base).

Directions
It is indicated for the treatment and prevention of roundworm and hookworm infestations in kittens, pregnant and lactating cats and adult cats.

Dosage
57.65 mg of pyrantel pamoate equal to 20 mg of pyrantel base per kg of body weight of the cat. Method of administration: for ease of use, the following dosage is recommended. 2 g syringe: two notches of the syringe for every kg of body weight. 3 g syringe: one notch of the syringe for every kg of body weight. It should be administered in a single dose without keeping the cat fasting and without making it follow a particular diet. The palatability of Nemex allows the preparation to be spread directly into the animal's mouth or, in the case of unsociable animals, mixed with food. Prophylaxis: prophylaxis is carried out to keep the cat free from worms. Furthermore, prophylactic treatment allows the cat to: be more resistant to other diseases; tolerate stress better; have a more alert sensorium; have a better general appearance, in particular have shinier fur. Prophylaxis program: 1. Kittens (up to 12 weeks of age): a first treatment should be carried out at 10-14 days of age. Subsequent treatments should be carried out at weekly intervals until 2-3 weeks after weaning (approximately 5-7 weeks of age). If the probability of infestation still persists, it is advisable to proceed with further treatments up to the 12th week of age at intervals of 2 weeks. 2. Young and adult cats (after 12 weeks of age): proceed with regular treatments every 3 months. In poor hygienic and/or environmental conditions, such as to favor the possibility of more frequent infestation, it is advisable to repeat the treatments at shorter intervals. 3. Female cats: provide treatment 2, 4, 6 weeks after each heat. Cats that have given birth should be treated at the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 10th week after giving birth. Outside of these periods and in good hygienic conditions, it is sufficient to proceed with disinfestation treatments every three months. Therapy: treatment should be carried out immediately whenever the presence of parasites is ascertained and repeated after 2-3 weeks. To ensure correct dosing, the plunger must be reset to zero before dosing. Before administration, remove the cap, carefully press the plunger until the gasket reaches the zero line and discard any paste that has leaked out.
