Is there any kind of vet prescribed dewormer that can take care of all worms at once?

The one that my vet uses is Strongid-T (Pyrantel pamoate) which is a broad spectrum dewormer. It is supposed to work against roundworms and hookworms. Just call your vet and I'm sure that if your kitty has worms, he/she will prescribe something for you.

It won't kill tapes though- you need a different med for that-

Our vets prescribe something called Flubenol P (flubendazol), which supposedly covers all types of worms. It's produced by a small European company, so may not be available in your area.

I was told by my vet that Revolution works on fleas, ear mites, and all types of worms except tapeworms.
