Do you mean after the sample has been done? If so as soon as possible! You could keep it in a plastic bag in the fridge for a few hours, but it needs to get to the vet as soon as you can.

just out of curiosity, how often has the vet asked you to administer the panacur?? is it a one off and then a repeat fecal check or has he asked you to administer it over a longer term?
