Sarolaner + Moxidectin + Pyrantel Embonate Uses
Sarolaner+Moxidectin+Pyrantel Embonate is used in the treatment of parasitic infections.
How Sarolaner + Moxidectin + Pyrantel Embonate works
Sarolaner + Moxidectin + Pyrantel Embonate is a combination of three medicines that work together to eliminate and prevent a broad range of parasites. Sarolaner targets fleas, ticks, and mites by blocking specific nerve channels in their nervous system, causing overexcitation, paralysis, and death. Moxidectin interferes with nerve transmission in heartworms and other internal parasites, leading to their paralysis and elimination. Pyrantel embonate acts on intestinal worms by overstimulating their muscle activity, which results in spastic paralysis and expulsion from the body. Together, these actions protect dogs from internal and external parasitic infections with a single monthly dose.
