Cool

Praziquantal is praziquantal, it is a pure medicine just like metronidazole (for protozoares). Prazipro contain praziquantal and a solvant, nothing else that I am aware of. It would be nice if you could find the reference about dog praziquantal containing something else and what is that something else. Praziquantal itself does kill flukes and some type of flatworms, not just flukes.

I don't think he's got flukes anylonger. I am not even sure it was fluke because I have not seen any. Today his breathing is nice and slow but he has not eaten the mysis and white worms yet...he's too full of feather dusters. I will try to offer the fish some fresh mussle as well.

After doing some surching if you get the praziquantel for humans then it has no other medications in it but aparently the praziquantel for dogs does.
