Worma Paste for Horses

Worma Paste for Horses is a broad spectrum paste for horses of all ages.

Worma Paste provides superior control of stomach and intestinal worms in horses. It also sterilises worm eggs within 24 hours of administration to assist in reducing recontamination rates in newly wormed horses, especially those new to a horse group, such as mares sent to stud or horses being spelled at pasture.

Controls sensitive strains of adult and immature forms of large roundworms (Parascaris equorum), pinworm (Oxyuris equi), large strongyles (Strongylus spp), adult stomach hairworm (Trichonstrongylus axei), and adult stomach worm (Habronema microstoma) and small strongyles (Cyathostomes). Also kills tissue stages of Strongylus edentatus and aids in the control of migrating stages of Strongylus vulgaris with a corresdponding reduction in arterial lesions. Two doses given two days apart gives enhanced efficiacy against migrating strongyles and will decrease the incidence of associated colic.

PRESENTATION: Oral paste in dial-a-dose syringe. Safe for use in horses of all ages.

DOSE AND ADMINISTRATION:
Dose according to bodyweight by setting the plunger ring to the required bodyweight setting. The syringe is calibrated in 50kg divisions. A 56g syringe contains sufficient Worma Paste to treat a 600kg horse. Ensure the syringe is placed on the back of the horse’s tongue not between the teeth and cheeks. Depress the plunger and keep the horse’s head elevated and its mouth closed until the paste is swallowed.

Internal parasites can develop resistance to anthelmintics. Pasture management, rotation between different types of wormer and other measures should be used to minimise the incidence of anthelmintic resistance.

SIZE: 56g syringe
