ParaGard® Large Allwormer Tablets
Overview
ParaGard® Allwormer for Dogs is an oral broad-spectrum deworming tablet that targets the major intestinal worms affecting dogs in a single dose. Its dual active formula — oxibendazole and praziquantel — works together to eliminate roundworms, hookworms, whipworms and tapeworms, including the hydatid tapeworm.
Each dose removes existing intestinal worm infections, with routine administration helping to reduce the risk of reinfestation. Tablets are dosed by bodyweight across three convenient pack sizes.
ParaGard is part of a comprehensive parasite management range and is well suited to dogs requiring routine intestinal worm control without flea or tick coverage.

This product is marketed as a flavoured chew, however Boehringer Ingelheim does not publicly disclose the excipient list for Paragard.
Oxibendazole is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic used to treat intestinal worm infections in dogs. It kills roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms by inhibiting their ability to absorb nutrients, leading to parasite death.
Praziquantel is an antiparasitic drug widely used to treat tapeworm infections in dogs. It works by causing severe spasms and paralysis in tapeworms, allowing them to be digested and eliminated from the body.
Unknown ingredients refer to components listed in pet food formulations whose specific identity or source is not disclosed. These may originate from animal, plant, or synthetic sources. Their primary purpose can vary, including nutritional supplementation or functional roles such as preservation. As their exact form is unspecified, it is unclear whether they are used in their natural state or as processed compounds, raising concerns about transparency and traceability.
This ingredient is included as a cost-effective component or processing aid, potentially serving to optimise manufacturing efficiency or product texture. Its presence may also support labelling requirements or contribute to the product’s stability, though its specific functional role is not clearly defined.
