vetman assessment

Drontal for cats

pyrantel embonate 230 mg + praziquantel 20 mg, tablet for cats
Assessed clinical scopeCat · Full labelled treatment scope for susceptible gastrointestinal roundworms and tapeworms in cats · By mouth
Care settingSingle-dose weight-based feline deworming with reinfection-source control
vetman score 8.0/10 Very good
Evidence confidence: High Georgia: No · Verified on 21 Oct 2026

A mature, well-supported single-dose feline wormer; the main local limitation is absence of a verified exact Georgian registration, not weak efficacy.

Regulatory and scientific credibility7.5/10

The exact product has a mature current UK/EU regulatory dossier, but an exact Georgian cat-product registration was not found; the former 21-11 mapping was a Frontline product-ID collision.

Clinical efficacy8.5/10

The praziquantel-pyrantel combination has long regulatory use and controlled evidence of high efficacy against susceptible feline cestodes and nematodes, including direct Drontal-combination data.

Safety and tolerability8.0/10

Adverse effects are generally rare and transient, but kittens under six weeks, pregnancy restrictions, hypersensitivity and piperazine co-administration must be respected.

Clinical practicality8.0/10

A scored film-coated tablet permits half-tablet dosing and single administration, although it is not documented as crushable or flavoured.

Full-course cost-effectiveness-

Price was not assessed and is excluded from the overall score.

Important safety and use flags

  • Complementary feed, not a veterinary medicine. Category-correct “not applicable” medicine-authorisation status does not establish regulator-reviewed efficacy, quantitative enzyme activity or safety.
  • The current manufacturer page names amylase and lipase but publishes no source, amount, activity units, protease, capsule-content mass, complete excipients, batch-potency limits or exact-product study. Do not infer a pancreatic-extract-equivalent dose.
