FERRETBOY 680 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 I agree. Drontal+ is the danglies and much cheaper online. Just so I'm not simply posting a "What he said" post... Has anyone heard of Milbemax? i use the milbemax, get it from the vet's.. It is about £4.50 a tablet, but it does the trick, it works for my dog's, my dogs work for me, so there worth it. I agree. Drontal+ is the danglies and much cheaper online. Just so I'm not simply posting a "What he said" post... Has anyone heard of Milbemax? I used to use it for the bulls, as it's designed for larger dogs. It's more expensive than Drontal PER TAB, but each tab does a dog two or three times heavier than one Drontal, if you get me. It kills the same gear as Drontal, so for anyone with large lurchers (or bulls, etc) it's worth looking at as it does work out cheaper per dose overall (i.e. one Milbemax rather than three Drontal). I was told by a vet a couple of years ago that many endoparasites were immune to Panacur now, and they stopped selling it for that reason. Drontal was no more expensive than Panacur at that practice, so maybe they were right? That's what my vets use RM. Before i found out about wormers online all mine were done with milbemax. Vets charged £5.25 for 1 tablet! Most of mine had to have 1 1/2. So quite expensive with 15 dogs every 3 months without fail! Even though they need more drontal tabs than milbemax it still works out cheaper. i have just got some milbemax from the vets and wormed the two pups with one tablet each.the vets said they will require two tablets each in two weeks time when the pups are ten weeks of age .are these the same tablets you guys have used they seem small compared to drontal. good hunting rew Quote Link to post

bill88 6 Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 That's the right stuff mate,but they come in different dose's depending on the dog's weight.I pay 97p a tablet for the terrier's and £1.75 for the lurcher's.As already pointed out a lot of vet's give the 4th tablet free if you pay for 3.It is good stuff though.
