Panacur® Suspension for Dogs and Cats

What Panacur Is and How It Works

Panacur® Suspension is a veterinary oral dewormer for dogs and cats. It helps manage susceptible intestinal worms and supports routine parasite control. This guide explains safe use and access with US delivery from Canada, even without insurance.

This Panacur liquid dewormer contains fenbendazole, a benzimidazole anthelmintic. It binds parasite tubulin and disrupts energy metabolism, which leads to clearance of susceptible gastrointestinal worms. Coverage includes common roundworms and hookworms in both species, and whipworms in dogs. Activity against some tapeworm species is limited; praziquantel products are typically required for full tapeworm control. The suspension is not a heartworm medicine and does not treat external parasites.

If a veterinarian has recommended a fecal test, complete it before and after treatment as advised. Good hygiene, prompt waste pickup, and flea control can reduce reinfection risk in multi-pet homes. For a broader view of pet-care options, see our Pet Medications.

Who It’s For

Use is intended for companion animals under veterinary guidance. In dogs, Panacur oral suspension for dogs may be prescribed for susceptible roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms identified on fecal testing. In cats, the suspension is commonly used for susceptible roundworms and hookworms. The suspension for puppies and kittens is measured by body weight as they grow; your veterinarian will advise timing and follow-up. Do not use in pets with a known hypersensitivity to benzimidazoles.

Dosage and Usage

Follow the label and your veterinarian’s direction for dosing and duration. Panacur oral suspension for cats is typically given once daily for several days, with weight-based volumes measured carefully. Dogs are often dosed on a similar multi-day schedule. Always shake well before measuring each dose. The liquid for dogs and the liquid for cats can be given with a small meal.

• Measure by body weight using a marked syringe.
• Mix with a small meal to improve acceptance.
• Give the full course; do not stop early.
• Keep a simple dosing log to avoid missed doses.
• Clean food bowls and bedding during treatment.

Giardia protocols, if recommended, can differ by case. Defer to the official label and your veterinarian when uncertain about schedules or repeat courses.

Strengths and Forms

The product is supplied as a palatable liquid for easy dosing. Common presentations include a 100 mL bottle intended for repeated, weight-based administration. The labeled strength is Fenbendazole suspension 10%. Availability can vary by supplier and region.

Missed Dose and Timing

If a scheduled dose is missed, give it when remembered on the same day. If it is close to the next scheduled time, skip the missed dose and continue with the regular plan. Do not double the volume to make up for a missed administration. If several doses are missed, ask your veterinarian about next steps.

Storage and Travel Basics

Store the bottle at room temperature away from excessive heat, direct sunlight, and moisture. Keep the cap tightly closed. Avoid freezing. Shake thoroughly before each use. Keep out of reach of children and other animals.

When you travel, carry the medicine in original packaging with the dispensing syringe. Pack it upright in a leak-resistant bag. For flights, place it in your carry-on and review destination rules for traveling with pet medications. Bring a copy of the prescription or a recent clinic invoice if available.

Benefits

This class offers broad activity against common gastrointestinal nematodes identified in pets. Liquid dosing allows fine volume adjustments for growing animals and small breeds. The treatment can be mixed with food, which may help acceptance in picky eaters. In many cases, a short, multi-day course is used, which can simplify planning. Fenbendazole oral suspension for dogs is widely used by veterinarians under label direction.

Side Effects and Safety

• Digestive upset, such as soft stools or vomiting.
• Transient drooling or mild nausea after dosing.
• Reduced appetite for a short period.
• Lethargy or restlessness in sensitive pets.

Serious reactions are uncommon. Seek veterinary care for persistent vomiting, severe diarrhea, facial swelling, hives, or breathing difficulties. In heavy parasite burdens, temporary gastrointestinal signs may occur as worms are cleared. Use cautiously in pregnant or nursing animals and only as directed by a veterinarian. This medicine should not be used in pets with a known allergy to fenbendazole or other benzimidazoles.

Drug Interactions and Cautions

Tell your veterinarian about all medicines, supplements, and preventives your pet receives. Using multiple dewormers together, or combining products with overlapping spectra, may increase adverse effects without added benefit. Certain agents, such as piperazine, may conflict with benzimidazoles; your veterinarian will decide if combination therapy is appropriate. Keep in mind that flea control and sanitation are essential adjuncts to intestinal parasite management.

What to Expect Over Time

Most regimens last only a few days. Stool consistency may change temporarily. You may or may not see worms in the stool; absence of visible parasites does not indicate failure. Your veterinarian may recommend a repeat fecal exam after the course to confirm clearance. Good hygiene, routine yard cleanup, and monthly preventives where indicated can help reduce reinfection. Keep children away from areas soiled by pet waste during treatment.

Consistency matters. Use reminder tools to finish the course on time. If vomiting occurs within a short time after a dose, ask your veterinarian whether a replacement dose is appropriate.

Compare With Alternatives

For mixed parasite risks, some clinicians choose combination products. One option is Drontal Plus, which includes praziquantel for tapeworms along with other actives. For tapeworms specifically, Droncit (praziquantel) targets tapeworm species not covered by fenbendazole alone. Your veterinarian will match the product to the parasites identified in your pet.

Availability and Substitutions

Patient Suitability and Cost-Saving Tips

This medicine may suit pets with confirmed intestinal nematodes on fecal testing. It may not be appropriate for animals with known benzimidazole allergy, severe vomiting, or conditions that limit oral dosing. Always disclose pregnancy or nursing status to your veterinarian before treatment.

• Multi-bottle planning: ask about quantities to cover planned courses.
• Consolidate orders: reduce repeated delivery fees when household pets share therapy windows.
• Set reminders: finish each course and schedule follow-up fecal checks.
• Keep records: note lot numbers and dates for future reference.
• Storage review: confirm room-temperature requirements before you travel.
