Clement-Thekan Strantel dewormer for cats is a veterinary medicine indicated for treating mixed infestations affecting a cat’s gastrointestinal tract. Its indication covers two main categories of internal parasites.

Treatment of intestinal parasites

This dewormer is intended to treat infestations involving gastrointestinal nematodes and cestodes. Mixed infestations caused by gastrointestinal nematodes and cestodes are therefore the specified use for Strantel. The indication includes the nematodes Toxocara cati and Toxascaris leonina, two species named in the product information. It also covers several cestodes: Dipylidium caninum, Taenia taeniaeformis and Echinococcus multilocularis. This coverage distinguishes the two parasite groups targeted by the treatment, without limiting its use to infestations caused by a single species.

Targeted parasite species

Strantel has a clearly defined indication for cats. It combines treatment for roundworms, which are nematodes, and tapeworms, which are cestodes. As a veterinary medicine for the antiparasitic treatment of cats, it is intended for the mixed infestations described in the product information. The targeted species are listed by name to help identify the treatment’s scope and select a product suited to the relevant indication. Please consult the medicine’s packaging or leaflet for administration instructions and dosage.

With an indication covering several gastrointestinal nematodes and cestodes, this dewormer provides targeted treatment for the mixed infestations specified.

Special warnings for each target species

Fleas serve as intermediate hosts for a common type of tapeworm, Dipylidium caninum.

Tapeworm infestation will almost certainly recur unless control of intermediate hosts, such as fleas and mice, is undertaken.

If there is a risk of reinfestation, a veterinarian should be consulted regarding the need for and frequency of repeated administration in cats. The local epidemiological situation and the cats' living conditions should be taken into consideration. It is also important to eliminate possible sources of reinfestation, such as fleas and mice.

Parasite resistance to any class of anthelmintic may develop following frequent or repeated use of an anthelmintic from that class.

Special precautions for use

Special precautions for safe use in the target species

As the tablets are flavoured, they should be stored in a safe place out of the animals' reach. Animals in poor condition or heavily infested, which may show symptoms such as diarrhoea, vomiting, parasites in the faeces or vomit, or a poor coat condition, should be examined by a veterinarian before the veterinary medicinal product is administered. In severely debilitated or heavily infested cats, use should only take place after the benefit-risk assessment has been carried out by the responsible veterinarian.

Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the medicinal product

As a hygiene precaution, people administering the tablets directly to the cat or adding them to its food should wash their hands after administration.

In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or label to the doctor.

Special precautions for the protection of the environment

Not applicable.

Other precautions

Echinococcosis poses a danger to humans. Echinococcosis is a notifiable disease to the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH). Specific guidance on treatment and monitoring, as well as the protection of people, should be obtained from the relevant competent authority.
