How does Quad Dewormer Chewable Tablets for Dogs work?
Only after transformation to fenbendazole does Febantel have any effect on the worms. The chemical mechanism of action of all benzimidazoles, including fenbendazole, is to bind to tubulin, a microtubule structural protein. These microtubules are crucial organelles that play a role in cell movement, division, and secretion in all living creatures. Blocking microtubules in worms causes glucose absorption to be disrupted, eventually depleting glycogen stores. This paralyzes the worms' whole energy management process, causing them to die or be evacuated. Pyrantel pamoate is a paralytic that affects the parasites that live within the dog's body. Worms usually cling to the host's body with their suckers or teeth. Pyrantel pamoate acts as a neuromuscular blocker, causing the worm to become paralyzed and lose its hold. The worm is then removed from the host's intestines and excreted in the stool. Praziquantel is absorbed, processed, and eliminated in the bile by the liver. The drug's cestocidal effect causes the tapeworm to lose its capacity to resist digestion by its host once it enters the digestive tract. As a result, complete tapeworms seldom travel through the digestive tract of their hosts. After being treated with Praziquantel, the majority of tapeworms will be digested, leaving just partial fragments of the parasite in the pet's feces.

Overview
In the event of re-infection, tapeworm segments may be visible within a month following the original therapy. To avoid reinfection, the facilities should be disinfected for fleas and rodents. Re-treatment will be necessary if these instructions are not followed. This is especially true in the case of tapeworms carried by the flea Dipylidium caninum. Reinfection is almost certain in these diseases if fleas are not completely eliminated from the surroundings and the animal. Fasting is neither required nor beneficial. To ensure accurate dosage, weigh the dog. Put a tiny bit of it in your pet's food or feed it by mouth. Do not use in pups under the age of three weeks or dogs under the weight of two pounds.
