Cydectin Platinum Pour-On is an endoparasiticide with efficacy in treating and controlling gastrointestinal parasites in cattle. It is effective against strains of gastrointestinal nematodes with single or dual resistance to the macrocyclic lactone family (including one or more of abamectin, doramectin, ivermectin and/or moxidectin) and/or imidazothiazoles (levamisole). Levamisole is also active against susceptible benzimidazole-resistant strains.

Cydectin Platinum contains moxidectin, a member of the macrocyclic lactone family of chemicals. It also contains levamisole, a member of the imidazothiazole family of chemicals. Resistance may develop to any chemical.

In cattle, following a single application at the recommended dose rate, Cydectin Platinum Pour-On prevents re-infection with sensitive strains of the following parasite species:

• Haemonchus placei – 14 days
• Trichostrongylus axei – 14 days
• Ostertagia ostertagi / O. lyrata – 14 days

New contamination of pasture is reduced for 21-35 days after treatment.

Cattle tick (Rhipicephalus australis (Boophilus microplus))

• Controls existing sensitive and resistant cattle tick infestations.
• Treatment does not protect from new infestations.
• Some engorged females continue to drop for up to three days after the first treatment, and these may lay some viable eggs, which should be taken into account when planning a strategic control program.
