Pet's info: Dog | Siberian Husky | Female | spayed | 7 months and 23 days old | 48.8 lbs

Want to use horse panacur for my two dogs. What is the dose for 50 pound dog and 60 pound dog. What does it treat for? They are on Heartgard + and wanted to make sure they don’t have whipworms (poop clear just want to do a routine deworm every six months) they don’t get fleas due to being huskies all huskies in us in Oregon never get fleas due the undercoat. Thanks vet said this was fine b4 forgot dose he is out of office currently

Panacur (fenbendazole) treats infections by hookworms, roundworms, tapeworms, and whipworms in dogs. Although tapeworms are listed, Panacur is ineffective against the tapeworm commonly found in dogs and cats. Legally, we are prohibited from providing dosing information in the absence of a physical exam and a VPCR (veterinarian-patient-client relationship). This information, however, is easily found online if you don't want to wait for your veterinarian to return to the office.
