How Does Milbemax for Dogs Work?

Milbemax contains a combination of two active ingredients: Milbemycin oxime and praziquantel. Milbemycin oxime causes paralysis in gastrointestinal nematodes (e.g., hookworms, roundworms, whipworms), leading to their subsequent expulsion. Praziquantel, on the other hand, causes muscle contraction in cestodes (e.g., tapeworms), leading to their expulsion or death.
