Product Description

Uses:

For the treatment of mixed cestode and nematode or arthropod infestations, due to adult and immature roundworms, lungworms, bots and tapeworms in horses:

Nematodes
Large-strongyle: Strongylus vulgaris (adult and arterial larvae), Strongylus edentatus (adult and L4 tissue larval stages), Strongylus equinus (adult) Triodontophorus spp. (adult)
Small-strongyle: Cyathostomum: Cylicocyclus spp., Cylicostephanus spp., Cylicodontophorus spp., Gyalocephalus spp. (adult and non-inhibited mucosal larvae).
Parascaris: Parascaris equorum (adult and larvae).
Oxyuris: Oxyuris equi (larvae).
Trichostrongylus: Trichostrongylus axei (adult).
Strongyloides: Strongyloides westeri (adult).
Habronema: Habronema spp. (adult),
Onchocerca: Onchocerca spp. microfilariae i.e. cutaneous onchocerciasis
Lungworm: Dictyocaulus arnfieldi (adult and larvae).
Cestodes (Tapeworm): Anoplocephala perfoliata, Anoplocephala magna, Paranoplocephala mamillana.
Dipteran insects: Gasterophilus spp. (larvae)

As tapeworm infestation is unlikely to occur in horses before two months of age, treatment of foals below this age is not considered necessary.

Dosage:

Single administration. 200 µg of ivermectin and 1.5 mg of praziquantel per kg of bodyweight corresponding to 1.07 g of paste per 100 kg bodyweight.
To ensure a correct dosage, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible; accuracy of the dosing device should be checked as underdosing might lead to an increased risk of development of resistance to anthelmintic drugs.
Each subsequent syringe division delivers enough paste to treat 50 kg of bodyweight. The syringe should be adjusted to the calculated dosage by setting the ring on the appropriate place on the plunger.
The syringe containing 7.49 g of paste delivers sufficient paste to treat 700 kg of bodyweight at the recommended dose rate.

Contraindications:

Do not use in foals under 2 weeks of age.
Do not use in mares from which milk is taken for human consumption.
Do not use in horses known to be hypersensitive to active ingredients or to any other ingredients.
Care should be taken to avoid the following practices because they increase the risk of the development of resistance and could ultimately result in ineffective therapy:

Too frequent and repeated use of anthelmintics from the same class, over an extended period of time.
Underdosing, which may be due to underestimation of body weight, misadministration of the veterinary medicinal product, or lack of calibration of the dosing device (if any).

Suspected clinical cases of resistance to anthelmintics should be further investigated using appropriate tests (e.g. Faecal Egg Count Reduction Test). Where the results of the test(s) strongly suggest resistance to a particular anthelmintic, an anthelmintic belonging to another pharmacological class and having a different mode of action should be used.
Resistance to ivermectin (an avermectin) has been reported in Parascaris equorum in horses in a number of countries including the EU. Therefore the use of this veterinary medicinal product should be based on local (regional farm) epidemiological information about susceptibility of nematodes and recommendations on how to limit further selection for resistance to anthelmintics.
Parasite resistance to a particular class of anthelmintic may develop following frequent, repeated use of an anthelmintic of that class.
