Frequently Asked Questions

What types of parasites does Duramectin effectively treat?

Duramectin (Ivermectin 1.87%) is highly effective against a broad spectrum of internal parasites in horses. This includes up to 35 species and stages of worms and bots, such as large strongyles, small strongyles (including some resistant to other dewormers), pinworms, ascarids (roundworms), hairworms, large-mouth stomach worms, bots (oral and gastric stages), lungworms, and intestinal threadworms. It also aids in the control of summer sores and dermatitis caused by neck threadworm microfilariae.

Is Duramectin safe for all horses, and is it safe for humans?

Yes, Duramectin is specifically formulated to be safe for horses of all ages, including mares at any stage of pregnancy and breeding stallions, without adversely affecting their fertility. However, it is **crucially important to understand that Duramectin is not safe or approved for human use.** Ingestion by humans or other animal species (such as dogs) can lead to severe adverse reactions, personal injury, or even fatalities. Always handle with care and keep out of reach of children and other animals.

How do I correctly dose and administer Duramectin?

Each 6.08gm syringe contains enough paste to treat one horse weighing up to 1250 lbs at the recommended dose rate. The syringe is designed with clear markings in 250 lb increments, allowing for precise dosing based on your horse's actual body weight. To administer, simply remove the cap, rotate the dose ring to the correct weight setting, and administer the paste orally. It is essential to avoid underdosing, as this can lead to ineffective treatment and contribute to the development of parasite resistance.

How can I prevent parasite resistance when using Duramectin?

The development of parasite resistance to any dewormer is a recognized issue. To prevent resistance and maintain the product's effectiveness, it is advised that Duramectin treatment should be part of a comprehensive parasite management program. This often involves consulting with a veterinarian to develop a tailored strategy, rotating dewormer classes, and monitoring through fecal examinations (e.g., fecal egg count reduction tests) to ensure efficacy and adapt deworming strategies as needed.

Are there any potential side effects or adverse reactions?

While generally well-tolerated, some side effects can occur. Swelling and itching reactions have been reported in horses with heavy infections of neck threadworm microfilariae (Onchocerca sp.) after treatment, which are likely due to the large number of dying microfilariae. In very rare cases, neurologic signs have been observed in horses after deworming with ivermectin, particularly with overdose or extremely high parasite burdens. Always follow dosage instructions carefully.
