Animal Health

Bayer’s Animal Health Division is one of the world’s largest suppliers of veterinary medicinal products for use in household pets, horses and livestock.

 

The majority of products in the range have been developed through Bayer's own research and development programmes, which specialise in infectious disease and parasites in animals.

Bayer's current product range includes:

 

  • comprehensive range of parasite treatments for dogs and cats that are available in tablet and spot on formulations.
  • a ground breaking antimicrobial product used to treat bacterial diseases in dogs, cats and exotic animals (small mammals, reptiles and birds), as well as cattle, pigs and certain classes of poultry.

Please note that all information on this website relates only to products with marketing authorisations in the UK and Ireland and is primarily for animal owners.

The Bayer-leaflet-line website is an on-line literature ordering service for UK vets which allows practices to order printed material 24 hours a day.

 

Bayvarol®
Bayvarol® (3.6mg flumethrin per strip) is a special development for the control of Varroa mites, a parasite which affects honey bees.

 

Bayvarol has played an essential part in recent years in helping to control Varroa and reduce its rate of spread in the UK. Unchecked, Varroa can destroy entire bee colonies.

 

Droncit® Spot-On
Droncit® Spot-On (20 mg praziquantel) is a tapeworm treatment for cats applied directly to the skin on the back of the neck.

 

The application to the skin makes it ideal for use in fractious cats, helping avoid having a fight on your hands. It is also for hunting cats which require frequent treatment. It is effective against all the common tapeworms found in cats in the UK, and also the fox tapeworm that is prevalent in mainland Europe.

 

Drontal®
The Drontal® range is the most popular brand of wormers used for pets in the UK.

 

There are four products in the range:

  • Drontal Plus Tablets (50 mg praziquantel, 144 mg pyrantel embonate and 150 mg febantel).

  • Drontal Plus XL Tablets (175 mg praziquantel, 504 mg pyrantel embonate and 525 mg febantel).

    Both Drontal Plus and Drontal Plus XL are a combined roundworm and tapeworm treatment for dogs and puppies.

  • Drontal Cat Tablets (20 mg praziquantel, 230 mg pyrantel embonate) a combined roundworm and tapeworm treatment for cats and kittens.

  • Drontal Puppy Suspension (14.4 mg/ml pyrantel embonate and 15 mg/ml febantel) a roundworm treatment for puppies and young dogs.
