Mediworm, a veterinary deworming medication specifically labeled "For Pigeon Use Only." The box indicates it is a combination of two active ingredients: Pyrantel Pamoate and Praziquantel Tablets. [1, 2]
Visual Features Observed
The image showcases a small orange and white rectangular box sitting upright on a light wooden counter or shelf. The text on the front clearly states "Pyrantel Pamoate and Praziquantel Tablets" and features a gray illustration of a pigeon in mid-flight. The lower portion displays the brand name MEDIWORM along with small text indicating the target parasites and a "100 Tablets" pack size. In the background, a computer monitor stands behind the product, flanked by a red "Fiproguard" pet spray box on the left and a brown cardboard shipping box on the right. [1]
General Information & Indications
This veterinary product is formulated as a broad-spectrum anthelmintic (dewormer) used to treat and manage internal parasitic infections in birds. It typically addresses infestations caused by: [1, 2]
  • Large Roundworms (Ascaridia columbae)
  • Hairworms (Capillaria species)
  • Tapeworms (Cestoda species) [1, 2]
Form and Function
The combination of active ingredients works synergistically to clear the intestinal tract: [1]
  1. Pyrantel Pamoate: Paralyzes the nervous and muscular systems of roundworms and hairworms, allowing the bird's body to naturally flush them out during normal bowel movements. [1]
  2. Praziquantel: Specifically targets the protective outer layer of tapeworms, causing them to disintegrate so they can be digested or expelled easily. [1]
General Dosing & Safety Guidelines
  • Typical Administration: For an adult pigeon, the standard standard consensus protocol is a single dose of one tablet administered orally. [1]
  • Timing: It is widely recommended to administer the tablet on an empty crop (fasted bird) to ensure maximum absorption and effectiveness, withholding food for approximately 2 hours post-dosage. [1]
  • Severe Infestations: In cases of heavy worm burdens, avian specialists often advise repeating the single-dose protocol after 14 days to catch surviving or newly hatched larvae. [1]V
