DESCRIPTION:
Plurivers syrup is an antiparasitic treatment for cats and dogs. It belongs to the pharmacotherapeutic group of internal antiparasitics. Cats and dogs can suffer from parasitism by worms, nematodes. Also called roundworms, nematodes are "internal" parasites that proliferate in the animal's intestine. The eggs of these worms will then be found in the animal's excrement. When ingested, these eggs turn into larvae. They will move through the animal's body to its digestive tract.
The worms can cause digestive or lung problems, coughing, as well as itching in the anal area. They can interfere with the animal's growth and alter its coat. Plurivers Syrup by Biocanina is an internal antiparasitic formulated with piperazine. It is a nematode repellent that will paralyze nematodes and cause them to detach from the digestive wall and be eliminated.
In dogs and cats, Plurivers syrup is effective against the following adult parasites: Toxocara canis and cati and Toxascaris leonina. Biocanina is a brand founded in 1962. It benefits from more than 5 decades of experience. Capacity: a bottle of 90 ml + dosing syringe.
