Milbemax™ worming tablets for cats

For intestinal worm control in adult cats, administer Milbemax every three months. For heartworm prevention, Milbemax should be administered monthly, preferably on the same date each month. 

Milbemax for cats is generally very well-tolerated when used as per label directions. If your cat does show any signs of illness after being administered Milbemax, contact our Animal Health Consultants on 1800 995 709. 

Milbemax can be safely used alongside other parasite preventatives, such as Seresto^TM Flea & Tick Collar for Cats. Seresto provides protection against fleas and ticks.  

Milbemax can be given to kittens from 0.5 kg and 6 weeks of age. Kittens should be treated at 6, 8 and 12 weeks of age, then every 3 months, unless using for heartworm prevention, in which case, monthly dosing is recommended. 

It is a good idea to regularly worm indoor cats. Even cats that never go outside can be infected with worms. It is easy to carry worm eggs indoors on the soles of your shoes. Insects and rodents can also sneak into homes, bringing worms with them. Your cat can also be infected as a result of a flea infestation. 

Correct dosing for Milbemax is detailed below: 

Note that cats must be at least 6 weeks old and 0.5 kg in body weight.  

For cats >8 kg, a combination of tablets should be given, consistent with the recommended minimum dose.
