Directions for Use

Fenbendazole comes as oral granules or as a liquid suspension and is given by mouth. Liquid forms must be measured carefully.

Fenbendazole should be given with food to reduce gastrointestinal upset.

Give this medication as directed by your veterinarian. Fenbendazole is often given once daily for 3 consecutive days and then again in another round 2-3 weeks later.

It is important that your pet receives all of the doses recommended by your veterinarian for the best results. Do not stop early or skip doses unless recommended by your veterinarian. Retreatment may be necessary if doses are missed, the medication is stopped too soon, or if reinfection from the environment occurs.

This medication should take effect within 1 to 2 days, but visible effects will take the entire duration of treatment to be recognized.

Side Effects of Divizole F Bolus 3gm Injection

At regular doses, fenbendazole does not usually cause any side effects. Sometimes, substances released by the dying parasites may cause an allergic reaction, especially if fenbendazole is given at higher than regular doses. If your pet shows signs of an allergic reaction (facial swelling, itchiness, hives, diarrhea, seizures, or shock) seek veterinary care immediately.

Salivation, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur in dogs or cats receiving this medication.

This moderate-acting medication should stop working in a few days, although the effects can be longer in pets with liver or kidney disease.
