What medicine does the dog anorectal worm take?

Anopheles canis is a common canine parasite, and its main infection symptoms include anemia and diarrhea. To treat anal infection, besides taking dogs to the pet hospital for examination in time, drug treatment is also essential. So, what medicine can a dog's anal worm take to effectively treat it? This article will elaborate from the following aspects.

1, praziquantel and furazolidone

Praziquantel and furazolidone are commonly used drugs for anal worms. The function of praziquantel is to block the energy metabolism of parasites, thus reducing the energy source of worms and finally killing them. Furendazole affects the DNA synthesis and cell respiration of worms, which eventually leads to the death of worms. The combination of these two drugs can enhance the curative effect. However, praziquantel and furazolidone have certain restrictions on the use of children and pregnant women, so they must be carefully considered when using them.

2. Ivermectin

Ivermectin is an antibiotic with broad-spectrum insecticidal effect, which can be used to treat anal insect infection. The mechanism of action of drugs is to interfere with the protein synthesis of worms, so that worms can not grow and reproduce normally, and eventually lead to the death of worms. Compared with other drugs, ivermectin has less toxic and side effects on humans and animals, good taste and easy oral administration.

3. polymyxin B.

Polymyxin B is a polypeptide antibiotic, which can be used to treat various parasitic infections. Its mechanism of action is to kill insects in a short time by destroying their cell membrane structure. Different from other drugs, polymyxin B has the advantages of quick action, short treatment time and no need of special diet, and is an economic choice for treating anorectal worms in dogs.

4. Precautions for oral anthelmintics

When using oral anthelmintics, there are the following points to pay attention to. First of all, we must accurately measure the dose and use the medicine accurately according to the advice of the pet doctor. Secondly, drugs generally need to be taken with food, which can be added to food or directly fed. Thirdly, the dog's diet should be strictly controlled during medication, so as not to affect the curative effect. Finally, strictly observe the dog's behavior and signs during medication, and consult the pet doctor in time if there is any abnormality.
