Safe-Guard Equine Dewormer Paste, 25g

Safe-Guard Equine Dewormer Paste by Merck is an effective solution for controlling various internal parasites in horses. The active ingredient, fenbendazole, targets a wide range of parasites, including large and small strongyles, pinworms, and ascarids. It is particularly effective against encysted early third stage, late third stage, and fourth stage cyathostome larvae, as well as arteritis caused by fourth stage larvae of Strongylus vulgaris.

Key Benefits:

• Broad-Spectrum Control: Effective against large strongyles, small strongyles, pinworms, ascarids, and specific stages of cyathostome larvae.
• Safe for All Horses: Suitable for use in foals, pregnant mares, and stallions.
• Palatable Flavor: Apple-cinnamon flavor ensures that horses readily consume the paste.

Dosage Instructions:

• Standard Treatment: Administer orally at a rate of 2.3 mg/lb (5 mg/kg) of body weight. One syringe is sufficient to deworm a 1,100 lb horse.
• For Foals and Weanlings: Where ascarids are common, the recommended dose is 4.6 mg/lb (10 mg/kg) of body weight, with one syringe treating a 550 lb horse.
