Dosage and administration
For oral administration. One 11.8g syringe contains sufficient gel to treat a 575kg horse at the recommended dose rate (0.4mg moxidectin per kg bodyweight and 2.5mg praziquantel per kg bodyweight). Each graduation on the calibrated syringe delivers sufficient gel to treat 25kg bodyweight. Use of a scale or weight tape is recommended to ensure accurate dosing. To avoid overdosing, care should be taken to accurately dose foals, especially low bodyweight foals or pony foals.
Dosing guideline
The recommended dosing interval for the control of small redworm is 13 weeks. For optimum control of bots, the product should be administered in the autumn, after the end of the fly season and before spring as the larvae may start to pupate and therefore are less sensitive to treatment.
Veterinary advice should be given on appropriate dosing programmes and stock management to achieve optimum parasite control.
