PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

Combined anthelmintic drug. It has a wide spectrum of nematicidal and cestocidal action on all phases of development of round and tapeworms parasitizing in dogs and cats, incl. Toxocara canis, Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina, Uncinaria stenocephala, Ancylostoma caninum, Ancylostoma tubaeforme, Hydatigera taeniaeformis, Dipylidium caninum, Echinococcus granulosis, Echinococcus multilocularis.

The mechanism of action of the active components included in the drug is based on inhibition of fumarate reductase, persistent depolarization of muscle cells of the helminth, disruption of energy metabolism, which causes paralysis and death of the parasite, promotes its excretion from the gastrointestinal tract.

Praziquantel acts on tapeworms (cestodes). Primarily, it causes muscular excitement, leading to spastic paralysis of the muscles of the parasite. This leads to the vacuolization of the helminth cell membranes, which allows intestinal enzymes to act on the parasite, causing its death. When administered orally, praziquantel is rapidly absorbed in the intestine and distributed in organs and tissues, excreted from the body mainly in the urine in a metabolized form.

Pirantel is active against gastrointestinal nematodes. It is a neuromuscular ganglion blocker that causes persistent depolarization and spastic paralysis of the musculature of the roundworms. Pirantela embonate is partially absorbed in the intestine and excreted from the body mainly with feces within 24-48 hours. In terms of the degree of effect on the body, Pratel is classified as a low-hazard substance (hazard class 4 according to GOST 12.1.007-76) in recommended doses does not have a sensitizing effect, embryotoxic and teratogenic action.
