It's 2 am and my puppy is crawling out of his fur
My 11 and a half week great pyr had been sleeping through the night until his dose of Drontal this afternoon and evening. Now he's barking, whining incessantly, trying to escape his crate and showing signs of dehydration. My vet did not mention anything about these potential side effects and they're not listed for Drontal. I'm alerting my vet first thing along with my fellow pet owners. Have not slept a wink along with my poor dog.

Awful terrible product
We gave our 8 month old dog this product. A few hours later she was hyper. She just couldn’t settle and didn’t seem to know what to do with herself, up and down from the sofa, in and out the back door. Staring weirdly. At midnight I was playing with her to try and wear her out. In the evening I googled and found so many similar stories. She was still like it the next day. The following day she was so tired from 2 days of unrest. I will never use again. It’s a disgrace it’s on the market. I would give it zero stars if I could.

Terrible product.
I gave this to my 8 year old labrador. She vomited for 2 nights. Also her Anus went red and was so sore. I have not used this wormer before and will put the other one in the bin. It took about a week for her red anus to calm down, it was far to strong for her.

Terrible Side Effects :(
Gave the 5-10kg chewable Tablet last night to my little 6kg Sheltie, with her dinner at 6pm... an hour later she was crazy, lots of drooling, panting, eyes dilated and chewing at both her front feet obsessively. She was like this most of the night and didn’t sleep. Do not buy this product.

I would give this a zero if I could
Like many others here, I wish I had read these reviews before giving my 10 week old pup Drontal. I also am appalled that my vet would give me this pill without warning me of the disturbing side-affects. Everything that the other reviews had mentioned (minus the vomiting) happened with my pup. We are now into the next day and he is still a bit weird. Better, but not totally himself yet. I feel like such a bad owner...
Do not give this to your dog!! There are many other options including natural approaches.

Shocking side effects
I wormed both of my Finnish Lapphunds yesterday they are both one year old correct dose was given. I never gave the worming a thought until the behaviour of one of them became very worrying later in the day. He was becoming increasingly agitated, restless, whining and it was not until he came back inside with a dirty bottom from diarrohea that I looked up the internet for possible side effect. It was then I came across reviews from other dog owners. The symptoms were the same as others had reported. No I will not chance using Drontal again.

I wish I had read these reviews before today :(
I gave my 12 week old mini foxie his correct dose of Drontal this morning and left for work as usual. I always pop back a couple of times during the day to let him out for toilet breaks and in between he always seems fine. I know this because we have a doggy cam setup to make sure he's OK. Today however, he has cried....continually. He's not slept, been so restless and generally unwell. I'm now home which has stopped the crying but he's like a dog possessed. He have so much energy and his eyes look completely wired. I've never seen him this way...Read more
before. I'm so upset to have inflicted this upon him, and I just pray it wears off by bedtime so he can get some much needed sleep! Poor puppy. Will never buy this again. I have 3 unused tablets and I wouldn't even give the stuff away. Straight in the bin!!Purchased in May 2021 at Petbarn Physical store.

DON'T BUY DRONTAL
I gave my dog 1 and1/2 Drontal All Wormer tablet yesterday afternoon at around 2pm, by 6.30pm that evening she started to not settle and kept going to the kitchen wanting food, I fed her small amounts of food thinking she was hungry. I realised something wasn't right when she wouldn't sleep or settle down, her eyes were wide open, she was moaning a bit, running and pacing. So now I'm getting really concerned, that's when I checked the side affects of this wormer on Product Review and after reading likewise reactions I felt like I had unintentio...Read more
nally poisoned my dog.... 3 months previously I had given her the chews without any issues other than a bit of runny bowel movement but these were the tablet form this time, so writing this review 15 hours later my dog still hasn't slept (neither have I) and I'm wondering what the rest of the day and night will be like with this wormer still in her system. Maybe the company involved with this poison should test it on themselves and experience first hand the side effects before they cause pain and suffering to our pets, but as you can see by the absence of any caring correspondence from representitves of the company THEIR STUNNED SILENCE IS VERY REASSURING.Purchased in May 2021 for A$17.00.

Horrendous - do not give this to your pet
As per the rest of the reviews, this has been horrendous for our 5 month old Labrador puppy and I’m furious that it was recommended by our Vet. He hasn’t slept all day, is trying to sleep now and is whimpering because he can’t rest. He is agitated, restless and constantly moving. He is also panting hard. Will never get this product again and hope our boy has no other issues once this gets out of his system. Terrible and disappointing to see this on the market.

Hate this product ! Should be removed from selling !
I gave my 3 month lab pup the correct dose last night or Drontal All-Wormer and she starting heavily panting shortly afterwards, didn't sleep well through the night and was very thirsty.
Today she has been sick and throwing up for most of the day and now her tummy is clear she is exhausted and sleeping. This makes me so worried ! Her change can only be related to this product as it has happened directly afterwards. I am now soo nervous that she is going to bounce back tonight -Hate this product ! Should be removed from selling !

Crazy dog
This medicine caused my dog to go insane. Constant whining, barking, and overall agitated behavior. He will NOT settle down. Before administering this drug, he would play for 1-2 hours then nap. I can’t get him to rest what so ever. He is completely distressed. This medicine is completely toxic. I will be requesting a different de-wormer next visit to the vet.

Never again!
THIS PRODUCT DESERVES A ZERO RATING!!
Gave my 10 week old puppy his first Drontal worming tablet today. Even after just half a tablet -and he became so so distressed (whining, panting, erratic, upset, hyperactive, outrageously clingy, no interest at all in playing, unable to sleep - and just not the same pup at all! This has gone on for 14 hours so far and he is still not right.
Would NEVER recommend to anyone!

Do not use!
Gave my 6 week old pups dosage as prescribed by the vet. 12 hours later and some are still vomiting undigested food and very watery stools. They were all fine before being wormed. I used the liquid previously but vet gave me tablets this time. Very worried and angry.

Made my dog sick !
I gave my Spitz (9.8 kg) the dose my vet recommended (5-10kg dose) this morning with breakfast. He seemed fine during the day, but this evening he had diarrhea on the kitchen floor (he is normally perfectly house trained) and went to bed, obviously not feeling well. I will throw the rest of the Dontral in the garbage. There are other brands that have worked well and not made my dog sick. I feel terrible for him feeling unwell !

A most concerning effect.
My 6 year old toy poodle, having been given the correct dosage, became agitated, hyperactive and was distressed. I will discard the remainder as it is too worrying. She is tiny but is in very good health and has not had this reaction to other wormers. Drontal does not have my confidence.

My poor puppy!!!!
I gave my 7 month old puppy the correct recommended dosage of Drontal Chewable wormer.
4 hours later, my pups behaviour was agitated, erratic, disoriented, manic, hyperactive, confused. He was urinating every 20 mins for about 2 hours.
I will NEVER use this product again, it is toxic!

Do not give this to your dog!
My Cavalier was given the correct dose of Drontal all wormer chewable as prescribed by the vet.
During the night she became extremely distressed and couldn’t settle. She seemed confused, scared and agitated. It was almost like she was hallucinating! After 6 long hours she finally settled and is doing better, but not back to her usual happy self yet.
I only wished I had seen the other reviews before administering this toxic medication to my sweet girl.
Please Bayer remove this product before it causes harm to any more dogs!

Feels unsafe to be giving this drug!!
Wormed two dogs, correct dose and within a couple of hours both were restless and agitated. Both have had watery diarrhoea during the afternoon and evening (tablet given at lunchtime) Feel concerned about them overnight. Something in this brand has changed in the last few years. Can't find anything from a veterinary source when searching around this subject - do I need to contact a vet or not?!

Questions & Answers
Julie Dasked
I gave my 12 week old puppy his second dose of drontal. He currently weighs 10.5 pounds. Roughly six hours after giving him the drontal, he vomited. He is laying around more and not wanting to play. Are these normal side effects of this medicine? If so, how long should these side effects last?
1 answer
I am not a vet. I recently gave my 4 year old kelpie a second dose of Drontal. Both times she has been violently sick and very lethargic for a week and certainly not herself. Won't be using Drontal again. Check it with your vet, better to be safe. Hope all goes well and your home pup recovers.

What is this? My puppy has roundworms he is 15 weeks old was given this at 3 p.m. today. Has barely pooped seen worms in his stool but he won't eat now cuz he's been vomiting you vomited 3 times undigested food! Doesn't even want to go outside seem so agitated I am so worried! This doesn't seem normal! Then I'm shocked to see that this is a reaction that everybody is getting on this site! Why isn't this listed as a side effect? You'll be hearing from my lawyer if anything happens to my dog he's just a baby! My vet gave me these pills I don't understand how you can sell a product like this!
