It doesn't cost that much more to swing by a Vet's office and get the medication if you know your cats's weight and that way you know it will work. Also I am sure you know that tapeworms are caused by fleas so you gotta keep the fleas under control to control the tapeworms. But if you want to deal with this problem correctly, go to the vet's office. They also sometimes have it in oral form to put on food.

Tapeworms
I just read where tapeworms aren't killed by over the counter remedies. You might try a mail order company like Doctors Foster & Smith, but some of the other companies might be cheaper . . . I haven't compared prices.

There is a pill you can get at the vet for tapeworms

Also Advantage for the fleas, but the Advantage is probably less expensive on E-Bay.
