Easy to Pick Up, Hard to Diagnose

Tapeworm infections are common, but some can be easy to miss.

Dipylidium caninum can be diagnosed by their shedding of large, visible proglottids. Adult tapeworms range from 15-70 cm.8

Echinococcus are difficult to diagnose due to their small size and low number of body segments. E. granulosus grow to just 2-7 mm.9

A Zoonotic Risk 

Tapeworms don't just threaten dogs: they can be passed from dogs to humans. CAPC recommends monthly deworming of dogs with praziquantel in areas where E. granulosus tapeworms are endemic.8,9

A single monthly dose of Credelio Quattro has been shown to be 100% efficacious against tapeworms# with its industry-established dose of praziquantel (2.28mg/lb).


#Echinococcus granulosus, Dipylidium canium, and Taenia pisiformis

What Threat Do Parasites Pose?

Indications for Credelio Quattro

Credelio Quattro is indicated for the prevention of heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis and for the treatment and control of roundworm (immature adult and adult Toxocara canis and adult Toxascaris leonina), hookworm (adult Unicaria stenocelphala), and tapeworm (Dipylidium caninum, Taenia pisiformis, and Echinococcus granulosus) infections.
Credelio Quattro kills adult fleas and is indicated for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis) and the treatment and control of tick infestations [Amblyomma americanum (lone star tick), Dermacentor variabilis (American dog tick), Ixodes scapularis (black-legged tick) and Rhipicephalus sanguineus (brown dog tick)] for one month in dogs and puppies 8 weeks of age and older and weighing 3.3 pounds or greater.

Important Safety Information for Credelio Quattro

Lotilaner, an ingredient in Credelio Quattro, belongs to the isoxazoline class and has been associated with neurologic adverse reactions like tremors, ataxia, and seizures even in dogs without a history of seizures. Use with caution in dogs with a history of seizures or neurologic disorders. Dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infections before Credelio Quattro administration as it is not effective against adult D. immitis. The safe use in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs has not been evaluated. The most frequently reported adverse reactions in clinical trials were vomiting and diarrhea. For full prescribing information see Credelio Quattro package insert.
