Pyrantel Liquid Solution for Worms

Description

Pyrantel Liquid Solution is a powerful deworming treatment designed to eliminate intestinal worms such as roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms in a variety of animals, including horses, dogs, cats, pigs and swine. This 5% Pyrantel solution is a trusted formula that targets and removes parasitic worms from your pet’s or livestock’s system, promoting better health and comfort.
