How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter Species, Dog, and Cat.
  2. Set Horse, Cattle, and Age.
  3. Adjust Body Weight, Risk Level as needed.
  4. Review Recommended Interval (days) and Days Until Next Treatment (days).
  5. Use Overdue Status and Dose (generic anthelmintic) (mg) to inform your decision.

What each input means

Species
Species determines deworming protocol.
Age
Animal age in months.
Body Weight
Current body weight.
Risk Level
Parasite exposure risk.
Fecal Egg Count
Eggs per gram from fecal flotation (0 if not tested).
Days Since Last Treatment
Days since the most recent deworming.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Species = 1, Age = 24, Body Weight = 25, Risk Level = 2 = 6 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Recommended Interval
    Recommended Interval
    60 = 60
  3. Calculate Days Until Next Treatment
    Days Until Next Treatment
    15 = 15
  4. Calculate Overdue Status
    No = No
  5. Calculate Dose
    Dose
    12.5 = 12.5
