Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Is Zimecterin safe for my pregnant mare or breeding stallion?
A: Absolutely. Zimecterin is a staple for broodmare managers because it is safe for mares at any stage of pregnancy and has no impact on the fertility of breeding stallions.

Q: How do I ensure I am giving my horse the correct dosage?
A: The syringe is designed with a user-friendly "dial-a-dose" plunger marked in 250 lb increments. This allows you to provide a precise dose based on your horse's weight, preventing underdosing and helping to manage parasite resistance.

Q: Why should I choose Ivermectin over other deworming ingredients?
A: Ivermectin 1.87% is considered the gold standard for broad-spectrum control because it kills a wider range of parasites—including bots and lungworms—that many other common active ingredients simply cannot reach.
