Profender Spot-On Dewormer for Cats
Profender Spot-On Dewormer for Cats is a topical worm treatment containing emodepside and praziquantel. It is applied directly to the skin, offering a practical alternative for cats that are difficult to treat with oral tablets.
Available options include Medium for cats weighing more than 2.5kg up to 5kg and Large for cats weighing more than 5kg up to 8kg. Weigh the cat before selecting a variant.
- Topical cat deworming solution
- Contains emodepside and praziquantel
- Targets susceptible roundworms and tapeworms
- Spot-on application at the base of the head
- Medium: over 2.5kg to 5kg
- Large: over 5kg to 8kg
- Suitable for cats and kittens from eight weeks of age
- Single-dose pipette format
Emodepside acts against susceptible nematodes, while praziquantel targets tapeworms. The combination provides broad internal-parasite coverage in one topical application.
Profender does not control fleas or ticks. Effective tapeworm management may also require flea control because fleas can transmit Dipylidium tapeworms when swallowed during grooming.
Kittens younger than eight weeks or cats below the minimum body weight require another parasite-control plan. Cats above 8kg may need an appropriate combination of pipettes.

The product is intended for cats only. Do not apply a cat pipette to a dog or divide one pipette informally between animals.
Weigh the cat as accurately as possible. Guessing from breed or appearance can lead to selection of the wrong weight category.
Keep the pipette sealed until use and dispose of the empty applicator where children and animals cannot reach it.

Profender is intended for mixed internal worm infections covered by its two active ingredients. It is not a flea, tick or ear-mite treatment.
- For external use on cats only.
- Do not administer by mouth.
- Avoid contact with the cat’s eyes and mouth.
- Prevent the cat from licking the wet application site.
- Keep treated cats apart until dry if they groom each other.
- Wash hands after application.
- Keep away from children.
Cats that are unwell, very underweight or receiving other medicines may need individual veterinary guidance before parasite treatment.
Treat all household pets through an appropriate parasite-control plan where reinfection is likely.
Directions and Warnings
- Weigh the cat and select the correct Medium or Large pipette.
- Remove the pipette from its packaging and open it.
- Part the hair at the base of the head until the skin is visible.
- Place the pipette tip directly against the skin.
- Squeeze out the complete contents in one spot.
- Do not rub the solution into the coat.
- Allow the application area to dry before close handling.
Apply the liquid where the cat cannot easily lick the site. If it is placed mainly on the hair rather than the skin, absorption may be reduced.
Do not use on broken or irritated skin. Avoid bathing immediately around treatment unless the product instructions permit it.
The timing of repeat deworming depends on age, lifestyle, hunting, flea exposure, household pets and veterinary advice. Cats that hunt or live with fleas may require a structured parasite-control programme.
Seek veterinary help if the cat develops marked drooling, vomiting, poor coordination, severe skin irritation or another unexpected reaction after application.
Store unused pipettes in their outer packaging away from heat, food and unauthorised access.
