Any Q

The overdose of wormer at a toxic level can be dangerous for the health of the dog. You may see your dog vomiting and other digestive issues, which could become visible within a few hours or maybe a day or so. If such is the case then it is advised to see your vet immediately.


Can you overdose your dog on Wormer?

Toxicity can occur if a dog is given an excessive dose of the medication (10 to 20 times the recommended dose). Additionally, certain dogs are genetically hypersensitive to the medication. In these dogs, ivermectin can pass directly to the brain and be toxic or even lethal.

Can I deworm my dog twice in one week?

Yes she sure can. It can take up to 1 week to rid the first round of worms in her system. Then as the worms in her system go through their 2 week life cycle (from baby worms to adult worms that you see in the poop) they should be treated again as a re-emergence of worms is seen.
