Equimax Equine Wormer Apple Flavored 14.03 Praziquantel/1.87 Ivermectin Paste

Equimax combines two antiparasitic medications in one paste. Ivermectin acts on the nervous system of susceptible parasites, and praziquantel is active against tapeworms. According to its FDA-approved labeling, it is indicated for the control of tapeworms, large strongyles, small strongyles, pinworms, ascarids, hairworms, large-mouth stomach worms, bots, lungworms and intestinal threadworms in horses. It is given by mouth as a single dose, with the amount based on your horse's current body weight.

The actions described here reflect the product's FDA-approved labeling; your veterinarian determines the appropriate use for your animal.

Equimax is formulated for horses and ponies only and should not be used in other species, since severe reactions including fatalities can occur in dogs. The label covers horses four weeks of age and older. Ask your veterinarian before using it in pregnant or lactating mares. Give a complete dose based on a current body weight, because underdosing can contribute to parasite resistance. Fecal egg count testing can help you and your veterinarian decide whether a dewormer is appropriate and monitor how well your program is working. Contact your veterinarian if your horse shows abdominal pain, diarrhea, lethargy or loss of appetite after dosing. Ivermectin can harm aquatic life, so dispose of the syringe properly. Not for human use. Keep out of the reach of children and wash your hands after handling.
