Mediworm Pwd

Product Details

The 100g and 250g containers contain the same named powder product. Select a pack according to the number of birds, the treatment plan and the ability to store the container correctly. A larger pack is not automatically the better choice where only a small quantity is required.

Keep the original container tightly closed so the product name, actives, batch, expiry and directions remain available. Do not transfer the powder into an unmarked jar or food container.

Mediworm Powder is distinct from Mediworm tablets and from dog or cat products carrying the Mediworm name. Their active strengths, species and directions differ, so they must not be interchanged.

Active Ingredients

Pyrantel pamoate and praziquantel are the declared worm-control actives in the powder. The product should be used only for the parasites and bird groups stated on the label. A product containing similar actives may still have a different concentration or approved use.

• Avoid breathing powder dust or allowing it to enter the eyes.
• Wash hands after handling the container or medicated food.
• Do not use food-preparation utensils for veterinary products.
• Keep away from children, pets and uninformed persons.
• Keep the container dry and tightly closed.
• Do not use an expired or unlabelled product.
• Contact a veterinarian after an unexpected reaction.

Birds can hide illness until they are seriously unwell. Weakness, breathing difficulty, collapse, repeated regurgitation or inability to eat requires prompt avian-veterinary attention rather than continued home treatment.

Directions and Warnings

Read the current label on the exact pack before use. Medpet states that the powder is not water soluble and is intended to be mixed with soft food or seed using its label directions. Prepare and provide medicated food only under responsible adult supervision.

1. Confirm that the product is Medpet Mediworm Powder for birds.
2. Check the expiry date, container condition and current label.
3. Confirm that the suspected parasite matches a labelled indication.
4. Use accurate weighing and measuring equipment required by the label.
5. Keep medicated food separate from ordinary household food.
6. Observe the birds and remove spoiled or contaminated food promptly.
7. Seek veterinary guidance if the condition does not improve.

Do not attempt crop dosing unless a veterinarian or properly informed competent person is performing it. Incorrect crop dosing can be fatal. This page intentionally omits procedural crop-dosing quantities and techniques.

Do not assume the same treatment is appropriate for every bird in a mixed collection. Species, body size, breeding condition, concurrent illness and other medicines may affect the treatment decision.

Store in a cool, dry place below the temperature stated on the label and keep the lid tightly closed. Dispose of unused medicated food and empty packaging according to the supplied instructions.
