Has anyone else used this with great success with their cats and kittens? It was recommended to me by her vet. I want secondary thoughts on this before I even think about administering it.

From site:
HomeoPet WRM Clear does not kill the worms; it gently creates and environment in the body that the worms can no longer live in, thereby flushing them harmlessly from the body.
It takes 2 weeks for the product to reach its maximum potential in the body. During this time you may see live worms in the stool. Seeing live worms is a good indication that the product is working. You may continue to see worms coming out for up to 4 weeks after the last dose, and this is because it takes that long for worm eggs to hatch. The effect of the product remains active in the body for up to 2 months after the last dose, thus inhibiting re-infestation within that time period in spite of contact with worms.
The easiest way to dose HomeoPet WRM Clear for your pet is to dose in the water. This way is especially useful in households with multiple pets and with owners who work during the day. By dosing in the water you are making the treatment available to the pet all day, and every time they take a drink they are effectively dosing themselves.
When dosed in water, the efficacy of the product does not dilute down. Rather it is naturally diffused though out the water by Brownian motion. (the normal vibration of water molecules at room temperature which disperses and moves particles)
Product can be used on multiple pets sharing a drinking bowl (including different weight sizes) – just follow amount of drops needed per pet.
It does not matter that pets will not always drink in proportion to their body weight (some dogs drink more others less irrespective of size). The beauty of the HP Formulation is that it has no known toxicity at its level of dilution and the dose is calculated on the minimal amount drunk by some dogs while still allowing no toxicity in pets that drink even huge quantities. Product consumed over 14 days will average out so if the pet drinks more one day and less the next it does not affect efficacy.
There is no risk to overdosing due to chemical free formulation.
HomeoPet WRM Clear is a low dilution, highly effective, natural product and as with all medications it is important to monitor your pets’ condition closely. Although rare, severe infestation may require vet intervention and the use of stringent chemicals. So be vigilant and if in the slightest doubt consult your vet.

I am a human doctor, not a vet, but there have been a number of controlled trials showing that homeopathy is no more effective than a placebo.  (See: David Riley, Michael Fischer, Betsy Singh, Max Haidvogl, and Marianne Heger. "Homeopathy and Conventional Medicine: An Outcomes Study Comparing Effectiveness in a Primary Care Setting"  The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. July 2004, 7(2): 149-159. Published in Volume: 7 Issue 2: July 5, 2004.

and

"A Randomised Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Homeopathy in Rheumatoid Arthritis" by L. E. C. Andrade, M. B. Ferraz, E. Atra, A. Castro, and M. S. M. Silva, Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology,   Vol. 20 , Iss. 3,1991) 

There are many more, proven to be effective, treatments available rather than homeopathic nostrums.

With all best wishes,

Geoffrey

Good to know! Her vet gave me a box at no charge so I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try it out or toss it, especially if it's a placebo or considered as such.

I doubt if it would do any harm, but it will delay the benefit of having your cat wormed.

With all best wishes,

Can you explain why it would delay any secondary worming if it is just a placebo? It wouldn't honestly have an affect if say, Drontal was given by the vet now would it? I am sorry, just trying to figure out how a placebo wormer would delay any stronger medications that kill the parasite. You have given vague information, so please feel free to explain it in detail. :)

Giving a homeopathic remedy may delay actual medical treatment, if the owner didn't seek that treatment due to thinking the homeopathic remedy was doing the job. But seeing that it's just water, no, it shouldn't have any interactions with a medication.

You also wrote: "Good to know! Her vet gave me a box at no charge so I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try it out or toss it, especially if it's a placebo or considered as such."

I was replying to your comment that "It wouldn't hurt."     I meant that giving a homeopathic nostrum, that could have no effect, would  hurt by delaying the benefit of deworming by an effective de-wormer. 

This would be by the number of days it would take before realising that the Homeopathic medicine was not going to work.  I deliberately wrote vaguely as I did not want to overtly criticise your vet for prescribing what I considered a useless homeopathic nostrum. 

I am only being specific about my opinion on your vet  because you considered my post was too vague and you have asked me to explain in detail.

With best wishes,

Geoffrey

You can critic my vet all you'd like. An opinion is an opinion and won't exactly hurt my feelings, sir (I already do that criticism anyways).
This is a forum and at the end of the day, it is for educational purpose for myself. I ask questions to get in depth information from those who have used products, know about products, cats and various little things that one would need to know about their feline.
If I am not happy with something or I am curious, I post. I was skeptical about the product, this is why I came here and asked. I am well aware of what misinformation running amuck in the vet field and secondary is always welcome when it comes to choosing what is best for ones pet.
