Neomax Tablets for Dogs Over 11 lbs (Over 5 kg) (Blue) — 2 Tablets

Australian-made intestinal wormer for medium, large and giant dogs over 11 lbs (5 kg). One tablet covers roundworm, hookworm, whipworm and tapeworm — same actives as Drontal at a fraction of the price. APVMA-approved. 2-tablet pack.

Cost-effective worming for medium, large and giant dogs

Neomax Allwormer Tablets (Blue) are an Australian-made, APVMA-approved oral wormer dosed for dogs over 11 lbs (5 kg). One tablet treats one 22 lb (10 kg) increment of bodyweight, so a 44 lb dog needs 2 tablets, an 88 lb dog needs 4 tablets, and so on. The actives are identical to Drontal and Endogard — praziquantel for tapeworm and oxibendazole for round, hook and whipworm — but as a generic, Neomax is significantly cheaper per dose.

The Blue 2-tablet pack is the right size for a single worming dose of a medium dog (22–44 lbs), or two doses for a 22 lb dog. It's the most convenient option for owners of one or two medium-to-large dogs who worm every three months.

What Neomax protects your dog against

• Roundworms — Toxocara canis and Toxascaris leonina, including the immature stages that most worming products miss.
• Hookworms — Ancylostoma caninum and Uncinaria stenocephala, the two species responsible for blood loss and anaemia in young puppies.
• Whipworms — Trichuris vulpis, one of the hardest intestinal worms to clear in adult dogs.
• Tapeworms — Dipylidium caninum (the flea-transmitted tapeworm), Taenia species, and Echinococcus granulosus (hydatid tapeworm — a serious public-health risk).

How Neomax works

Praziquantel is the gold-standard active for tapeworms. It paralyses the tapeworm and breaks down its protective outer layer so it can be digested and passed out of your dog's system — usually within 24 hours of dosing.

Oxibendazole is a broad-spectrum benzimidazole that targets roundworms, hookworms and whipworms. It blocks the worm's ability to absorb glucose, starving the parasite and clearing it from the intestinal tract.

Both actives have been used in veterinary medicine for decades. They're the same two ingredients you'll find in well-known brands like Drontal and Endogard — Neomax is the budget-priced Australian generic, with the same vet-grade efficacy at roughly a third of the cost.

Active ingredients

Each Neomax Blue tablet contains 50 mg praziquantel and 100 mg oxibendazole, dosed for dogs over 11 lbs (5 kg).

Dosing — quick guide

• 11–22 lbs (5–10 kg) — one tablet
• 22.1–44 lbs (10.1–20 kg) — two tablets
• 44.1–66 lbs (20.1–30 kg) — three tablets
• 66.1–88 lbs (30.1–40 kg) — four tablets
• 88.1–110 lbs (40.1–50 kg) — five tablets
• Over 110 lbs (50 kg) — add one tablet per additional 22 lbs (10 kg)
• Adult dogs: worm every 3 months for routine maintenance
• Pregnant or lactating bitches: 10 days before whelping, then 2 and 4 weeks after

How to give the tablet

Neomax tablets are scored down the middle so accurate dosing is easy across the full weight range. Most dogs accept the tablet hidden in a piece of cheese, soft meat or a small treat. For dogs that are reluctant pillers, the tablet can be crushed and mixed into a small amount of wet food. Give with or just after a meal to minimise the rare chance of a mildly upset stomach.

Why customers buy Neomax instead of Drontal or Endogard

• Same praziquantel + oxibendazole formulation as Drontal Allwormer for Large Dogs
• APVMA-approved, manufactured under Australian GMP conditions
• Around a third of the per-dose price of branded equivalents
• Scored tablets allow flexible dosing across all weight ranges from 11 lbs to 132+ lbs
• No prescription required — over-the-counter availability

Pack contents

2 tablets — covers one dose for a 22–44 lb dog, or two doses for a 22 lb dog. Each tablet is scored for accurate split-dosing.

Safety and side effects

Neomax has a wide safety margin. The actives are well-tolerated in dogs from 2 weeks of age and at least 1.1 lbs (0.5 kg) bodyweight. The most common side effects, when they occur at all, are mild — temporary loose stool or a one-off vomit in the 24 hours after dosing. Talk to your vet before use if your dog is pregnant or has a known sensitivity to benzimidazoles. Do not give to cats — see our cat wormer range for the feline equivalent.

Important — heartworm cover

Neomax Allwormer covers intestinal worms only. It does not prevent heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis). For complete protection, give Neomax alongside a monthly heartworm preventative such as Valuheart, Heartgard Plus or NexGard Spectra.

For complete parasite protection, pair Neomax with a monthly flea and tick chew (NexGard, Bravecto or Simparica Trio) and a monthly heartworm preventative.

Compliance

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many Neomax Blue tablets does my dog need?

A: Give 1 tablet per 22 lbs (10 kg) of bodyweight. So a 22 lb dog needs 1 tablet, a 44 lb dog 2 tablets, a 66 lb dog 3 tablets, and so on. Use the tablet's central score line if your dog falls between weight bands.

Q: Is Neomax the same as Drontal Allwormer for Large Dogs?

A: Yes — both products contain praziquantel and oxibendazole at the same per-tablet strengths. The dosing instructions are identical. Neomax is the Australian generic and is significantly cheaper. Compare against the Drontal range.

Q: What's the difference between the Blue and Brown packs?

A: Brown is dosed for small dogs and puppies up to 11 lbs (5 kg) — each tablet contains 25 mg praziquantel + 50 mg oxibendazole. Blue is dosed for dogs over 11 lbs — each tablet contains 50 mg praziquantel + 100 mg oxibendazole. The two are not interchangeable on a tablet-for-tablet basis.

Q: How often should I worm my large dog?

A: Every 3 months for adult dogs. Worm more often if your dog hunts, scavenges, lives with cats, has had fleas recently, or is regularly around livestock — all of which increase tapeworm exposure.

Q: Can I give Neomax with food?

A: Yes — giving the tablet with or just after a meal is actually recommended. It improves dosing comfort and reduces the rare chance of a temporary upset stomach.

Q: Is Neomax safe for breeding bitches?

A: Yes. The recommended schedule for pregnant or lactating bitches is one dose 10 days before whelping, then a second and third dose 2 and 4 weeks after whelping. The puppies should then be wormed on the standard puppy schedule from 2 weeks of age.

Q: Does Neomax kill hydatid tapeworm?

A: Yes — Neomax kills Echinococcus granulosus, the hydatid tapeworm. This is particularly important for working dogs, hunting dogs and dogs that have access to raw offal, which can carry hydatid cysts. Hydatid disease is a serious public-health risk in humans, so regular worming with a praziquantel-based product is important wherever hydatid is endemic.

Q: Does Neomax prevent heartworm or fleas?

A: No — Neomax treats intestinal worms only. You'll need a separate monthly heartworm preventative (such as Valuheart, Heartgard Plus or NexGard Spectra) and a separate flea/tick product (such as NexGard, Bravecto or Simparica Trio) for complete protection.
