In a Nutshell

  • Effective against tapeworm
  • Taste can be an issue
  • Direct administration with syringe is effective

Quick Verdict

Praziquantel liquid is effective but can be challenging to administer due to taste issues. Mixing with food is not recommended as pets may refuse to eat it. Using the included syringe directly into the pet's mouth is more effective.
