What are Viatris Kitten and Small Cat Milbemycin / Praziquantel tablets used for?
This veterinary medicine acts as a broad-spectrum dewormer specifically formulated to meet the needs of kittens and small cats from 0.5 kg. It treats intestinal infestations caused by the internal parasites most frequently encountered in young felines, at an age when their digestive and immune systems are still fragile.
Thanks to the combination of two complementary active ingredients, the product effectively targets roundworms (nematodes) and tapeworms (cestodes), whether present in immature or adult form. This extensive parasitic coverage enables comprehensive management of mixed infestations, often observed in kittens living in groups or with access to the outdoors.
Milbemycin oxime acts primarily on intestinal roundworms. It interferes with the neuromuscular transmission of parasites, leading to their paralysis and natural elimination through the digestive tract. This action helps to cleanse the intestine, limiting digestive disorders such as bloating, diarrhoea or stunted growth linked to parasitism.
Praziquantel completes this action by targeting tapeworms. It modifies the permeability of parasitic membranes, rapidly disrupting their structure and destroying them. This dual approach reduces the overall parasite load and limits the risk of reinfestation.
In kittens, untreated parasitic infestation can affect appetite, vitality and weight gain. By helping to eliminate intestinal parasites, this dewormer contributes to maintaining digestive balance, good physiological development and overall comfort.
Used as part of a deworming program adapted to the cat's age and lifestyle, Milbémycine / Praziquantel Viatris Chaton et Petit Chat x2 is a reliable solution for preserving the intestinal health of young felines over the long term, complementing the hygiene and preventive measures recommended by the veterinarian.

Expert advice
Animal naturopathy recognizes the importance of early prevention of digestive infestations to support the proper development of the intestinal microbiota. Kittens are highly susceptible to worms from the very first weeks of life, and can quickly develop digestive or growth problems if deworming is neglected.
Veterinarians often recommend deworming young cats every month up to six months, then every three months thereafter. This protocol supports intestinal immunity while reducing the risk of transmission to humans (zoonoses). The Milbemycin/Praziquantel combination is particularly appreciated for its tolerance, broad spectrum and ease of administration.
