• When your kitten hits the age of 3 months, before giving any shot of the vaccine, it is necessary to deworm your kitten with any available dewormer (e.g tab. Drontal ®, Syp. Vermox ®)

• Again deworm your kitten after 10 days of initial administration of the dewormer.

You can give Biofel PCH ® either on the same day or the next day, the dose should be 1ml subcutaneously.
