What is Strantel Cat Dewormer by Clement Thékan used for?
Clement Thékan Strantel is a comprehensive dewormer for cats. With its formula containing pyrantel and praziquantel, Strantel Cat safely treats all types of worms in dogs and cats: roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and tapeworms.
Strantel Cat from Clément Thékan Laboratories is a versatile, broad-spectrum dewormer for cats that can be used starting at 3 weeks of age. It is designed to treat infestations caused by parasites sensitive to pyrantel and praziquantel, such as the following nematodes (roundworms) and cestodes (tapeworms):
- Nematodes (roundworms): Toxocara cati (syn. mystax), Ancylostoma tubaeforme, Ancylostoma braziliense
- Cestodes (flatworms): Echinococcus multilocularis, Dipylidium caninum, Hydatigera (Taenia) taeniaeformis, Mesocestoides spp., Joyeuxiella pasqualei
This treatment is indicated only starting from the third week of life, since cats are not at risk of tapeworm infestation until at least that time. The unique combination of the two active ingredients, pyrantel and praziquantel, eliminates all types of intestinal worms your cat may encounter with a single dose, without the need for fasting beforehand.
Clement Thékan Strantel for Cats is a versatile, broad-spectrum dewormer. It effectively targets several types of cat worms, including roundworms (nematodes) and tapeworms (cestodes). This comprehensive action ensures that your cat is protected against a variety of common parasitic infestations.
The main active ingredients in Strantel for Cats are pyrantel and praziquantel. Pyrantel is effective against roundworms, while praziquantel targets tapeworms. This combination of active ingredients ensures complete elimination of intestinal parasites.
Strantel Cat is suitable for kittens as young as 3 weeks old. It’s important to note that treatment is recommended starting at this age because kittens can become infested with tapeworms from that point on. This suitability makes it an ideal choice for owners of young cats.

Frequency of Deworming for Puppies and Kittens
Almost all puppies and kittens are infected with worms. These worms are transmitted by the mother via the placenta or through her milk, or through contact with feces in the environment. Kittens must be dewormed periodically.
Every 2 weeks from 15 days of age to 2 months of age.
Once a month thereafter, from 2 months to 6 months of age.
After that, it is advisable to follow the deworming schedule for adults, which depends on each individual situation.
When and how should adult cats be dewormed?
Deworm them at least every 3 months, or 4 times a year (once per season).
For cats that never go outside, twice a year is the absolute minimum, but our pharmacist specializing in veterinary products recommends deworming your cat four times a year. Worms are commonly found in indoor cats (dormant forms present since kittenhood, self-infection, fleas).
Whether in the city or the countryside, it makes no difference—all green spaces are naturally contaminated.
