Is 34mg praziquantel twice a day too much for my 7lb chihuahua?

Question

Is this typical dosing for a 7lb chihuahua. 34 mg of praziquantel given twice a day for 3 days

Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

Praziquantel is typically given as a single dose. It may need to be repeated in 2 weeks. According to package information, one 34mg tablet is the dose given to dogs between 6 and 10 pounds. You will need to confirm this with your veterinarian though. Legally, we are prohibited from telling you to administer any medication to your pet in the absence of a physical exam.
