Ben had  horrific side effects to drontal, twitching, wobbling and shaking, i thought he was having a fit!! :o  he was also violetly sick and poorly for a couple of days after.  Our vet switched him to Milbemax and it caused no problems at all.  I only use it every 6mths - not 3 mths and it seems ok for Ben.

Jet has been on Milbemax sine I have had him and it is once a month until 6 mths then every 3mths.
No side effects to report and touch wood, no worms either.

Program plus prevents fleas as well as worming, but not all worms so you'd need to use milbemax once a yar to covr for all as well.

Milbemax is the most commonly prescribed at work, and I've never really heard of side effects - drontal is supposed to be harsher, and panacur seems to not agre with quite a fw, including mine.

We got Milbemax for Hattie a couple of weeks ago, with no probs..  Since she's now 6 months, she only needs 'doing' every 3 months now and our vet took my mobile & e-mail details since he said the Milbemax people would send me a reminder when she was due.  i thought this was a great idea since, as people have said, it's easy to forget these things!!

Been to my vets today and she is happy for us to change from Drontal to Milbemax and is gonna get me(well Zak and Strider :005:) some for tomorrow. Hopefully that will be an end to them being sick after worming.

Just to let you know I used Milbemax with Zak and Strider on friday - brilliant - no side effects at all. Will definately be sticking with it. :D

I used Panacur on Paddy and he hated taking it and got the runs from it.  Changed to Milbemax because COL users recommended it and no problems since.

One question though - are all these items only available from the vet?  If not, has anyone found a cheaper source/outlet for them?
