Elanco Drontal Drontal Plus for dogs, broad spectrum anthelmintic for 10 kg of weight

Drontal for dogs with meat flavor is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic tablet intended for a weight of 10 kg.
Drontal is intended for the prevention and treatment of mixed helminthiasis in dogs caused by nematodes (toxocariasis, ancylostomiasis) and cestodes (teniasis, dipylidiasis, echinococcosis). The active components of Drontal, praziquantel and pyrantel, exhibit synergistic action and have a detrimental effect against round and tapeworms.
Praziquantel is very quickly absorbed by parasites through their surface and is evenly distributed in them, thus, severe damage to the parasite shell occurs very quickly, followed by subsequent contraction of the shell and paralysis of the parasites.
The basis for the rapid action is mainly the change in the permeability of the parasite membranes for Ca++, which causes praziquantel, which leads to a disruption of the parasite's metabolism.
Pyrantel as a cholinergic antagonist has an effect similar to nicotine and leads to spastic paralysis of nematodes by depolarizing neuromuscular blockade.
