Pet Essentials Products provide Proban tablets that effectively minimise tick paralysis that occurs in dogs. After administration, the tablets circulate in the blood stream. The ticks feeding on the blood of the dogs are eliminated due to the effect of the pills.
Proban tablets from Pet Essentials Products are not generally administered while using other organophosphate (OP) based products including shampoos, sprays, collars and other OP based oral treatments. Proban can be used with Sentinel, Frontline, Capstar and all Pyrethrin or Permethrin based products. It is not affected by swimming, washing or the rain. Dog owners are also required to search for ticks everyday besides feeding Proban. The ticks generally survive around the face, neck, ears, shoulders and between the toes.
For an accurate dosage of Proban, it is essential to weigh the dogs before administering the tablets. A 10kg dog can be given one tablet every 48 hours to destroy ticks, while a dog weighing 21kg can be given 21/2 tablets every 48 hours. If Proban is administered in a liquid form, then a dog weighing 5kg can be given 1ml every 48 hours.
