Although not observed in studies performed with this product, anorexia may occur as it is a common adverse effect of products containing praziquantel.

In some animals, Ancylostoma caninum and Toxocara canis may not be totally eradicated by the treatment, resulting in a continued risk of shedding of eggs into the environment. Follow-up examinations of the faeces are advisable and, based on the results of these examinations, treatment with a nematodicidal product should be carried out, if necessary. The safety of the product has not been established in bitches during pregnancy and lactation. Do not use simultaneously with levamisole, piperazine or choline esterase inhibitors.
