Johnson's One Dose Easy Wormer Size 1

Johnson’s One Dose Easy Wormer Size 1 contains nitroscanate 100mg per film-coated tablet to treat specified roundworms, tapeworms and hookworms in small dogs. Treatment is given as a single dose, with the number of whole tablets determined by your dog’s weight.

The current Johnson’s leaflet permits use from 12 weeks of age and excludes dogs weighing less than 2kg. Both age and weight requirements must be met. This product is not indicated for whipworm (Trichuris vulpis).

• Treats specified roundworms, tapeworms and hookworms.
• Each film-coated tablet contains nitroscanate 100mg.
• Single-dose treatment using the correct number of tablets for bodyweight.
• Tablets must be given whole, never broken or divided.

Dose and administration

Weigh your dog before treatment and follow the dosage chart on the supplied pack. The current leaflet specifies one 100mg tablet per 2kg bodyweight, with chart bands of 2.1–4kg: two tablets; 4.1–6kg: three tablets; and 6.1–8kg: four tablets. For weights not clearly covered by the chart, including exactly 2kg, ask your vet to confirm the dose rather than estimating. Dogs above 8kg require the appropriate alternative product.

Give the required number of whole tablets first thing in the morning when your dog’s stomach is empty, with about one-fifth of the daily food ration. Withhold the remaining food ration for eight hours after dosing, as directed in the leaflet. Do not crush, break or divide the tablets.

Check that the pack contains enough tablets for the required dose. Follow the supplied leaflet and your vet’s advice on repeat treatment and an appropriate ongoing worming programme.

Precautions

For dogs only. Do not use in puppies under 12 weeks old, dogs below 2kg, dogs that are sick or recovering from illness, or dogs with a known allergy to any ingredient. Do not repeat the dose if vomiting occurs shortly after treatment. Contact your vet if adverse reactions occur, symptoms persist or you think the medicine has not worked.

Very rare reported reactions include vomiting, diarrhoea, lethargy and lack of coordination. The current Johnson’s leaflet permits use during pregnancy and lactation.

Flea control is important because fleas can transmit Dipylidium caninum tapeworm. Use flea-care products appropriate to your pet and follow their instructions.

Handling and storage

The tablets can irritate skin and eyes and must remain whole. Keep out of the sight and reach of children. Store in a dry place at no more than 25°C, keeping blister strips in the outer carton. Do not use after expiry. Dispose of packaging and remaining product according to local requirements.

Always read the supplied packaging and leaflet before use.
