| For the removal and control of mature infections of large strongyles (Strongylus vulgaris, S. edentatus, S. equinus); small strongyles; pinworms (Oxyuris equi); large roundworms (Parascaris equorum); and tapeworms (Anoplocephala perfoliata) in horses and ponies. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitism.
Use Instructions
After removing the cap, the paste should be deposited on the dorsum of the tongue. Introduce the nozzle end of the syringe at the corner of the mouth. Direct the syringe backwards and depress the plunger to deposit the paste onto the tongue. Given in this manner, it is unlikely that rejection of the paste will occur. Raising the horse's head sometimes assists in the swallowing process. When only part of the paste has been used, replace the cap on the syringe nozzle.
Note: Position screw-gauge over appropriate mark on plunger. Each milliliter contains 226 milligrams pyrantel base as pyrantel pamoate.
Tapeworms: Administer as a single oral dose of 6 milligrams pyrantel base per pound of body weight for treatment of tapeworms (Anoplocephala perfoliata). The syringe has weight mark increments in red denoting the tapeworm dose.
Strongyles, pinworms and roundworms: Administer as a single oral dose of 3 milligrams pyrantel base per pound of body weight for treatment of large strongyles, small strongyles, pinworms and large roundworms. The syringe has weight mark increments in black denoting the strongyle, pinworm and roundworm dose.
This syringe contains enough paste to treat two 1200 lb horses for large strongyles, small strongyles, pinworms and large roundworms or one 1200 lb horse for tapeworms.
It is recommended that severely debilitated animals not be treated with this preparation. Doses greater than 3 mg/lb have not been tested in horses younger than 6 months of age or in pregnant mares or breeding stallions.

Each syringe contains 7.20 grams pyrantel base in 37.6 grams of paste. |
