Special Warnings:

Resistance of parasites to any class of anthelmintics may develop after frequent, repeated use of an anthelmintic from that class. Fleas serve as intermediate hosts for a common type of tapeworm - Dipylidium caninum. Tapeworm infestations will certainly reoccur unless intermediate hosts, such as fleas, mice, etc., are controlled. To avoid reinfestation, all animals kept together should be treated simultaneously. Cleaning after treatment is crucial to prevent the recurrence and spread of infestation.
