Tortoise Wormer Plus! 5g

[Suthypie]

Hey Everyone!
Hope someone can shed some light on this. I recently purchased the above (green packet) which has got good reviews.
Has anyone else used this? How did you get on?

I had a faecal test done for my Russian. Unfortunately came back with high pinworm rate. I gave him the correct dose as stated in the packet....now it says it can be repeated a second time if necessary. But doesn’t state how soon after!! A week? Two weeks? I was going to go with two weeks as so any eggs hatched in the meantime can then be dealt with....

I hope I’m doing the right thing here by my tort

I can't see any picture but to get rid of worms your vet should've prescribed Panacur

This stuff I used is a Flubendazole medication which apparently kills pinworms and others.......will this not do the job?

Flubendazole is a med for pin worms but you need the correct dosage. did you dose it or did your vet? you cant just give them some of it, you need the correct mg per kg dose based on how strong of you have. we use fenbendazole 10% here and i prefer it to fluben personally also panacur = FENBENdazole
