RFD Wormer





Dosage Form: FOR ANIMAL USE ONLY
RFD®

(pyrantel pamoate)

LIQUID

WORMER

Easy to administer.



Indications and Usage


For the removal of large roundworms (Toxocara canis and Toxascaris leonina) and hookworms (Ancylostoma caninum and Uncinaria stenocephala) in dogs and puppies. The presence of these parasites should be confirmed by laboratory fecal exam. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitism.


RFD Liquid Wormer may also be used to prevent reinfestation of T. canis in puppies and adult dogs and in lactating bitches after whelping.


Shake Well Before Use


Active Ingredient: 2.27 mg of pyrantel base as pyrantel pamoate per mL.



Recommended Storage


Store below 30°C (86°F).



Warning


Keep out of reach of children.



Dosage and Administration


Administer 1 teaspoon (5 mL) for each 5 lb of body weight. To assure proper dosage, weigh animal prior to treatment. It is not necessary to withhold food prior to treatment. Dogs usually find this dewormer very palatable and will lick the dose from the bowl willingly. If there is reluctance to accept the dose, mix in a small quantity of dog food to encourage consumption. It is recommended that dogs maintained under conditions of constant exposure to worm infestation should have a follow-up fecal exam within 2–4 weeks after first treatment. If your dog looks or acts sick, consult your veterinarian before treatment.


For maximum control and prevention of reinfestation, it is recommended that puppies be treated at 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10 weeks of age. Lactating bitches should be treated 2–3 weeks after whelping. Adult dogs kept in heavily contaminated quarters may be treated at monthly intervals to prevent T. canis reinfestation.

What is betamethasone topical?

Betamethasone is a topical steroid. It reduces the actions of chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, redness, and swelling.


Betamethasone topical is used to treat the inflammation caused by a number of conditions such as allergic reactions, eczema, and psoriasis. The dental paste form of betamethasone is used to treat mouth ulcers.


Betamethasone topical may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about betamethasone topical?


Use this medication exactly as directed on the label, or as it has been prescribed by your doctor. Do not use the medication in larger amounts or for longer than recommended.


Do not cover treated skin areas with a bandage or other covering unless your doctor has told you to. If you are treating the diaper area of a baby, do not use plastic pants or tight-fitting diapers. Covering the skin that is treated with betamethasone topical can increase the amount of the drug your skin absorbs, which may lead to unwanted side effects. Follow your doctor's instructions.

Avoid using this medication on your face, near your eyes, or on body areas where you have skin folds or thin skin.


Do not use this medication on a child without a doctor's advice. Children are more sensitive to the effects of betamethasone topical.

Betamethasone topical will not treat a bacterial, fungal, or viral skin infection.


Contact your doctor if your condition does not improve or if it gets worse after using this medication for several days.

What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before using betamethasone topical?

What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine, or if anyone has accidentally swallowed it. An overdose of betamethasone topical applied to the skin is not expected to produce life-threatening symptoms.
