Panacur® Granules for Intestinal Worms

Panacur® Granule Single treats common intestinal worms in dogs and cats. This product page helps you understand what it is, how it works, and how to use it correctly. You can order on CanadianInsulin so it ships to the US, with options for those without insurance.

What Panacur Is and How It Works

This medicine contains fenbendazole, a broad-spectrum anthelmintic (dewormer). It targets roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, certain tapeworms, and Giardia in dogs. In the gut, fenbendazole disrupts parasite microtubules, which the worms need for glucose uptake. The parasites lose energy and are cleared by normal intestinal movement.

CanadianInsulin.com is a prescription referral platform. We verify prescriptions with your prescriber when required, and licensed Canadian pharmacies dispense your order. For broader background on parasites addressed by this treatment, see our overview of Pet Intestinal Worms. For protozoal infections, read about Pet Giardiasis.

Many pet owners prefer granules because they mix with food and are easy to give. The fenbendazole granule single format offers a one-time packet for a treatment course, depending on your veterinarian’s direction.

Who It’s For

This treatment is used in dogs and cats to treat susceptible intestinal worms. It may also be used for Giardia management in dogs when recommended by a veterinarian. Your pet’s species, weight, and diagnosis determine the correct packet size and duration.

The product can be part of a deworming plan for puppies and kittens, as advised by a veterinarian. The phrase Panacur Granule Single for dogs reflects a common clinical use; cats may also be eligible when a vet confirms the indication. Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to fenbendazole. Discuss use in pregnant, breeding, or debilitated animals with your veterinarian.

Dosage and Usage

Follow your veterinarian’s directions and the package insert. Typically, the granules are mixed thoroughly with a small amount of moist food and given by mouth. Ensure your pet eats the entire portion so the full dose is received. Your vet may recommend treatment on consecutive days based on the pet’s weight and the target parasite.

Weigh your pet accurately before starting. Continue the course as directed, even if signs improve early. For some parasite risks, your veterinarian may advise repeating a course or checking a follow-up fecal sample. The term fenbendazole single granules refers to a one-serve packet format, which can simplify short courses.

Strengths and Forms

These are oral granules in single-use packets that are mixed with food. Availability may vary by pharmacy and region.

• Granules: commonly supplied as a 22.2% concentration
• Single-use packet sizes: often 1 g, 2 g, or 4 g

Ask your veterinarian which Panacur Granule Single packet strength or combination is suitable for your pet’s weight and condition.

Missed Dose and Timing

If you miss a dose, give it when you remember unless it is close to the next scheduled time. Do not double up. Resume the normal schedule and finish the course as directed. Consistency helps maximize effectiveness across the full treatment window.

Storage and Travel Basics

Store the unopened packet in a dry place at room temperature, away from children and pets. Keep the sachet sealed until use to protect the granules from moisture. After mixing with food, discard any uneaten portion promptly unless your veterinarian advises otherwise.

When traveling, keep the original packaging and any prescription documents in your bag. A resealable pouch helps contain opened packets and feeding tools. For broader product context before trips or boarding, you can browse related items in Pet Medications.

Benefits

• Broad-spectrum coverage: treats multiple common intestinal worms
• Easy mixing: granules blend with food for simpler dosing
• Single-serve format: helps with short, defined courses
• Veterinarian-guided: compatible with fecal testing and follow-up plans
• Flexible planning: packet sizes align with pet weight ranges

Side Effects and Safety

Most pets tolerate this medicine well. Common effects are usually mild and gastrointestinal. Contact your veterinarian if symptoms are severe or persistent.

• Possible vomiting: usually transient
• Soft stool or diarrhea: may occur during deworming
• Decreased appetite: typically short-lived
• Lethargy: uncommon and usually mild

Serious reactions are rare, but allergic responses can occur. In heavy worm burdens, temporary digestive upset may happen as parasites are cleared. Dogs receiving insulin or sulfonylureas have no known specific interaction with this dewormer, but hypoglycemia is not a known class effect here; monitor any pet with complex conditions per veterinary advice.

Drug Interactions and Cautions

Fenbendazole has a low interaction profile, but always inform your veterinarian about all medicines and supplements. Use caution when combining multiple dewormers or when managing liver disease. Discuss use during pregnancy or nursing. Do not start, stop, or extend therapy without veterinary guidance.

What to Expect Over Time

During treatment, your pet may pass parasites or fragments in the stool. Stool consistency often improves after the course, depending on the underlying infection and gut health. Your veterinarian may request a follow-up fecal test to confirm clearance. Preventive hygiene and environmental control can reduce re-exposure.

Compare With Alternatives

For tapeworm-focused therapy or mixed infections, your veterinarian may consider alternatives. Two options offered on our site are Drontal Plus and Strongid P. Selection depends on the parasite species, your pet’s weight, and safety considerations.
