Profender for Cats: Single-dose Topical Dewormer

Profender topical solution is an easy and effective treatment for eliminating intestinal worms in cats. It is a convenient deworming option for cats that resist oral treatments. This no-mess formula removes various types of worms in a single application, eliminating the stress of follow-up doses. Profender is suitable for cats and kittens aged 8 weeks or older, and weighing at least 2.2 lbs.

Profender coverage

Profender is a single application dewormer that treats and controls hookworm, roundworm and tapeworm infections in cats. In case of re-infection, it may be reapplied after 30 days, or as directed by your veterinarian.

How does Profender work?

Profender cat dewormer contains two active ingredients: Emodepside and praziquantel. On application of Profender, these ingredients are absorbed topically through your cat’s skin and reach the intestinal tract to kill and remove worms.

Emodepside is effective against adult and immature stages of roundworms and hookworms. Praziquantel, on the other hand, effectively removes tapeworms.
