Years ago I received a $400 lesson. ....
I had always just used Nemex ( pyrantel pamoate ) or the generic version until weaned. Until one litter I had a pup get down in his back end to the point he was almost dragging himself and in somewhat a paralyzed state ... I took him to the vet thinking something more serious was going on. well guess what it was a worm in the muscle next to his spine and pinching a nerve causing the issue described above. Vet prescribed what I later discovered was just plain ol safeguard
( fenbendazole ).
The Pup was fully walking normal 3-4 days later. Ever since that issue I ALWAYS discontinue using the Nemex after the 3rd week and go to safeguard. I do use Ivomec on week 8 in addition to the safeguard.
So many people are afraid of "over" worming a puppy that I believe most arent wormed "properly".
This is what has worked for me for a long time now.
Nemex - give on week 2 & 3
SafeGuard ( fenbendazole ) - after week 3, I use safeguard weekly till weaned
