Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is not possible for us to answer this without knowing a lot more information such as the type of deworming medication you are referring to and also the worm you are trying to treat. It would be best to contact your veterinarian who prescribed it to know more exactly. Best of luck!
