A room of our own keeping

Panacur, weighed out for every animal you feed.

A yellow box for the terrier, an orange one for the shepherd, an apple-cinnamon syringe for the horse. Match the scale's number to a color, stir it into breakfast, and three mornings from now the whole chore is crossed off.

The dog shelf

Granules that vanish into breakfast

Three boxes, color-coded by the scale: yellow carries ten pounds of dog a day, white twenty, orange forty, and combinations reach every weight past that. Tear the day's packet over a moistened bowl, watch it go clean, and repeat for three mornings — that is the whole treatment against roundworms, hookworms, whipworms and Taenia tapeworms.

Paste that keeps the apple-cinnamon peace

The horse shelf

Paste that keeps the apple-cinnamon peace

Horses skip the packets entirely. Their Panacur is a 10% fenbendazole paste in a dial-a-dose syringe — one tube covers 1,100 pounds against strongyles, pinworms and ascarids, flavored so the tube empties without a rodeo. For the encysted larvae ordinary rotations can't reach, the five-day Powerpac protocol waits at the end of the shelf.

The whole line on one card

Every dog box on one card

The whole canine line differs in exactly two ways: grams per packet and packets per order. Everything else — the granules, the three-morning course, the label's list of worms — is identical across the shelf.

Panacur C Canine Dewormer, 1 Gram Packets (3-Count)

Where most bowls start

The yellow box teaches the whole routine

One gram a day, ten pounds of dog, three packets to the box. Small dogs, first-time worming, six-week pups — they all begin here, and by the third licked-clean bowl the ceremony is muscle memory: tear, stir, watch, done.

The routine

Three mornings, start to swept up

1

Weigh before you pour

The scale settles every argument at the bowl. Panacur C doses at 22.7 mg of fenbendazole per pound, so the dial picks the box for you — yellow to 10 lb, white to 20, orange to 40, and honest combinations past that. Between sizes, the label says round up.

2

Stir it into breakfast

Tear the day's packet over a small first helping of the usual food and mix until the granules disappear. Dry kibble takes a splash of warm water so nothing sifts to the bottom. The bowl must come up clean — the licked shine is the receipt.

3

Repeat for three mornings

Same packet, same bowl, three days running — the course is the ritual, not any single serving. The horse shelf keeps its own rhythm: one dialed push of paste for the rotation, or five double-strength days when the vet calls for the Powerpac.

For the whole yard

Multi-dog homes worm on one calendar

One dog cleared and one dog carrying just reloads the yard a month later. The bundle shelf keeps every bowl on the same three mornings — two-box pairs for small households, fifteen-packet reserves for fosters, twelve orange packets for the big-dog yards — so the whole property comes clean in one window.

Most reached-for

What leaves the room fastest

From the back of the box

The back of the box, read aloud

The back panel of a Panacur box folds the working ingredient, the weight table, the worm list and an honest side-effect count into three inches of six-point type. Here it is unfolded to reading size — in the order the questions actually come up over the kitchen counter.

Panacur is Merck Animal Health's fenbendazole: 22.2% granules in single-day packets for dogs, 10% apple-cinnamon paste in dial-a-dose syringes for horses. Nearly fifty years on clinic shelves, still the dewormer veterinarians reach for when they want broad coverage with a wide safety margin.

Feed-Room Facts

Active ingredient & how it works

Fenbendazole, a benzimidazole anthelmintic, at 222 mg per gram of canine granules and 100 mg per gram of equine paste. It kills slowly and on purpose — starving the worm's cells of the scaffolding they use to absorb food — which is why the dog course runs three consecutive mornings and the equine Powerpac protocol runs five. Sustained contact beats one heroic wave.

Dosing table (dogs)

The daily dose is 50 mg/kg — 22.7 mg per pound — repeated three days in a row. Weigh the dog the week you dose; between sizes, the label says round up, so a 15 lb terrier eats the 2 gram packet. Every row below is one day, taken from the back panel of every box.

Uses — what a course clears

  • Roundworms — Toxocara canis and Toxascaris leonina, the classic puppy burden
  • Hookworms — Ancylostoma caninum and Uncinaria stenocephala
  • Whipworms — Trichuris vulpis, the patient re-seeder of yards
  • Tapeworms of the Taenia species — the flea-carried Dipylidium needs a different drug
  • Horses: large and small strongyles, encysted cyathostome larvae, pinworms, ascarids

Side effects & safety

The label's own count from US clinical studies: 3 of 240 dogs — about 1% — had vomiting associated with the product, and that is the list. Panacur C is approved for puppies from six weeks, adult dogs, and pregnant dams; there is no breed exclusion on the panel.

Two cautions ride with that record. Do not worm a dog or puppy that is already sick — diagnose first, treat second. And as dead worms leave over the days after a heavy course, soft stool can follow; persistent or bloody stool is a call to the clinic, not a shrug.

Species line — packets vs paste

Dogs get granule packets that vanish into food; horses get dialed paste over the tongue — one syringe covers 1,100 lb. Nothing crosses the aisle: a horse syringe is not a bargain dog dose, dog packets do not stack to a draft mare, and cats belong in a vet's exam room, not this table.

When to call the veterinarian first

Parasite diagnosis is microscope work — bring a stool sample before and after a course. Keep pups on the 6-8-10-12 week calendar with the dam treated alongside, run the equine Powerpac only on a vet's instruction, and never dose a sick animal on a website's say-so, including this one.

Receipts, kept

Where every word here comes from

A feed room is only as good as its labels. Nothing on these shelves is our invention — every dose, worm and warning traces to one of these documents, and you are welcome to walk past us straight to the source.

The hand on the scoop

Who keeps this room, and how

One pair of hands stocks these shelves, and the method never varies: start from the FDA label, photograph the box rather than trust memory, pull prices and rating counts from the live Amazon listings on a dated pass, and write it all up in the plain talk you would want over a half-door. Nothing is syndicated, spun, or borrowed from another site's shelf.

The room has two standing rules about honesty. First — when we do not know, we say so and point at the veterinarian; this site diagnoses nothing and prescribes nothing. Second — when a reader rings the back bell about a drifted price, a stale photo or a wrong link, the fix outranks whatever else was scheduled that week.

The commission disclosed on every page is the room's whole income, and it buys exactly zero influence over the words: the dosing table would read the same if nobody ever clicked a button.

Read the counts

Reading the rating counts

Amazon's stars are the neighbors talking over the fence. Here is what the loudest counts actually say about these boxes — and what they leave out.

4.7 average from 6,192 ratings

Over six thousand households weighed a middling-sized dog, took down the white box, and left the count better than they found it. For a product whose whole job is being unremarkable in a food bowl, that is the loudest praise available.

Panacur C Canine Dewormer, 2 Gram Packets (3-Count)

4.8 average from 6,192 ratings

The four-packet sleeve holds the best mark on the whole dog line, and the reason is the spare: one extra daily dose forgives the morning a dog noses half its breakfast aside. Buyers notice mercy and rate it.

Panacur C 2 Gram Packets, 4-Count Pack

4.7 average from 1,471 ratings

Fourteen hundred ratings is a small county's worth of horse owners, and the word that repeats in them is the flavoring. A syringe that empties without a wrestling match earns its stars one calm Tuesday at a time.

On the Panacur C Canine Dewormer, 4 Gram Packets (3-Count)
“Two orange packets a morning for my 80-pound shepherd mix, folded into wet food. He inhaled it all three days and the recheck float came back clean. No foaming, no drooling, no drama.”
Dana R., one large and extremely food-motivated shepherd
On the Panacur C 1 Gram Packets, Five-Box Bundle (15 Packets)
“I run fosters through here in waves, and the five-box bundle turned worming from a supply problem into a calendar entry. Fifteen packets on the shelf means intake day never waits on a truck.”
Priya S., foster home with a revolving front door
On the Panacur Equine Paste 10% Dewormer, Single Syringe
“My gelding has spat out every wormer ever invented. This one went in at the corner of his mouth, he smacked twice, and then checked my pockets for more. I stood there feeling betrayed on behalf of all the others.”
Miguel A., barn of four opinions

Weigh. Stir. Three mornings.
