Will I see tapeworm's segments again after giving my kitten the first treatment? How about flea?
Q. I just found out that the 8 weeks kitten I adopted from shelter has tapeworm. I gave her the first oral treatment from vet. Will the tapeworm be killed right away? Will I see the rice-like worm segments again? Also, my kitten has tapeworm, does that mean she has flea too? I haven't seen any flea yet, but do I need to give her any flea control medicine?

A. Yes, she has fleas too. The most common way for a cat to get intestinal tape worms is from eating a FLEA (a host) that has eaten a tapeworm egg. The host animal has to be eaten. The most common way for a cat to (or human) to get tapeworms is to ingest the host (flea that has ingested a tapeworm egg)... not just the egg. The flea eating the egg activates the egg... which then hatches in your cat's intestine after the cat ingests the flea. Tape worm eggs do not activate to become larvae until they are eaten by a host, and then that larvae must again be swallowed to become a tape in the end recipient.

How do i know that the tapeworm is gone from my kitten?
Q. I discovered that my cat had tapeworm after looking at his stool and noticing the segments. I had given him a medicine for the tapeworm. And now i dont know if it is completely gone. It has only been one dose and i dont know how long it should take to kick in. I also noticed a longer segment of the worm hanging out of his butt, and i want to know if that is all of it so i can stop giving him the medicine.

What happens if I take tapeworm removal medicine but I don't really have a tapeworm?
Q. Im like 90 % sure that I have a tapeworm cuz Ive been having the main symptoms for quite a while now.I can't go to the doctor, so I just wanted to get the medicine and do it myself.Im just worried about what will happen to me if I take the medicine but I dont really have a tapeworm.

A. Pretty much nothing. You'll have the same possible side-effects from the medicine whether you've got the worm or not. If you live in an area where parasites are common, it's likely you do have a worm. Whenever I travel from an area where human parasites are common, I de-worm, just as a precaution. It's not like the medicine has to kill something, so you die if it can't find a worm. If you de-worm, and there are no worms, then, well, pretty much nothing happens.

A. The signs of a tapeworm, besides weightloss, can include Nausea, weakness, fever and sometimes lumps or swelling when an infection is caused. Treatment for tapeworms is nearly always via oral medication such as praziquantel (Biltricide) or albendazole (Albenza) and a fairly short course should cure the problem.

Wash your hands lots... after you touch the kittens,,, or handle their business. and then wash them again. But if you happen to get worms ( HIGHLY unlikely!)... don't worry about that either.

Asked by James L - Tue Oct 21 03:40:18 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Prevent tapeworm - easy enough. Don't eat food that is not well cooked, especially pork and beef. Cure - probably the doctor is a best choice. Prescription medicine for tapeworm is a much faster way to kill the worm than all the purposed home remedies, and it's proven to work. And tapeworm is not a long tangy piece of poop - it's a really, really long, white, thin, ribbon-like worm. It has hooks and suckers on its head so that it will not get passed out. Without a doctor's medicine to kill it, you probably will never pass it out. Maybe a few broken off segments, but that's it.

If she begins to lose weight, hair, or begins to sleep more than normal, take her back to your vet to do a check. Also, you should treat for fleas because that is how they are most commonly transmitted to household pets.

Q. If a human was to ingest tapeworm eggs or larvae, would it have any effect? Or would they have to consume a flea carrying the larvae?

A. You can get a medication from your veterinarian called Drontal. Drontal will get rid of all the worms at the same time with only one dose. How much he will need will depend on his weight.
