Milbemax is a wide-spectrum treatment for worms in cats. This unique formula treats roundworms, hookworms and tapeworms. Moreover, it also prevents heartworm infections in cats. The treatment is very palatable as it comes in a beef flavor tablets. Milbemax is safe to use on cats and kittens over six weeks of age. It can also be used on breeding, pregnant and lactating female cats.
Milbemax - How it works?
There are two active ingredients in Milbemax – Praziquantel and Milbemycin oxime. The first ingredient eradicates tapeworms by causing muscle tremors in the body of parasites. The second ingredient, Praziquantel disturbs the neuro transmission of roundworms and hookworms. Moreover, these active ingredients also eliminate heartworm larvae thus preventing heartworms. Both ingredients combined protects the cat from parasites and prevents future infestation.

Warning
I usually treat my two cats with milbemax before travelling anywhere out of the town. I am quite pinicky that my cats may get worms. This has always helped me to protect both of them from any worm infection after travelling.
Was very happy when the parcel arrived in just 5 working days. Thank you.
We are about to finish with last year's stock of Milbemax, I'm thinking to buy them again.
