Can I Treat Tape Worms With Round Worm Medicine?

You have not indicated that whether you wanted to use this medicine in human or dogs/cats? You can use one medicine which contains albendazole for tapeworm, roundworm, pinworms, hookworms and whipworms. While other medicines for roundworm can not be used for tapeworms. There are separate medicines for tapeworms and roundworms except albendazole.  For more details, visit anthelmintics.

Round worm medication will not work on tapeworms.  Most round worm medication includes pyrantel pamoate and is not effective against tapeworms.  Tape worms are treated with praziquantel (Droncit) and epsiprantel (Cestex); these are the only reliable medications to treat tapeworms in canines and felines.  Albendazole is not approved for treat tapeworms in dogs or cats.  Fenbendazole may be effective in treating one type of tapeworm (Taenia sp.) but does not treat Dipylidium sp. And these are more common.
A fecal sample should be examined to confirm diagnosis and make sure there is not a co-infection present.
This advice is for dogs and cats only.  If this is in regards to a human infection contact your physician.
