Pet Meds Eqvalan
- Eqvalan Paste is a parasiticide (anthelminthic and boticide) which removes worms and bots in a single dose.
|
|
How Eqvalan should be used:
|
|
The content of a single oral syringe is sufficient to treat one 1250 lb horse at the recommended dose rate of 91mcg per lb. Each weight marking on the oral syringe plunger delivers enough paste to treat 250 lb of body weight. All horses should be included in a regular parasite control program with particular attention being paid to mares (including pregnant mares at any stage of pregnancy), foals and yearlings. Foals should be treated initially at 6 to 8 weeks of age, and routine treatment repeated as appropriate. Stallions may be treated without adversely affecting their fertility.
|
|
What are the side effects of Eqvalan:
|
|
Swelling and itching reactions after treatment with Eqvalan Paste have occurred in horses carrying heavy infections of neck threadworm. These reactions were most likely the result of microfilariae dying in large numbers. Symptomatic treatment may be advisable. Healing of summer sores involving extensive tissue changes may require other appropriate therapy in conjunction with treatment with Eqvalan Paste. Reinfection, and measures for its prevention, should also be considered. Consult your veterinarian if the condition does not improve.
