VALBAZEN Effective in the removal and control of liver flukes, tapeworms, stomach worms, intestinal worms and lungworms. I get 500mL for $36 at our local co-op. I give 1mL for every 10lbs of body weight for 3 days in a row, every 3 months or so. The vet calls it white wormer and will charge $20 for 100mL.
I get a liquid Ivermec from my local vet for heartworms its only .35 cents a mL and the dosage is 1mL for every 25lbs body weight. So a 50lb dog cost 70 cents a month for heartworm prevention.
I've been using this combination for years with very good results. [/QUOTE
I know I will get blasted for this but....
Valbazen is albendazole. It has been associated with bone deterioration when given to dogs over a period of time. There are vets who coonhunt that have posted this on this site and Coondawgs.com. A much safer and more effective wormer is Safeguard/panacur both of which are fenbendazole.
I know everyone is going to say "i've used for years and had no problems" and so did I, but I'm not arguing with research.
