EQUEST Oral Gel has a persistent efficacy of 2 weeks against small strongyles. The excretion of small strongyle eggs is suppressed for 90 days.

Dosage & Administration

For oral administration. A single oral dose of 400 µg moxidectin/kg bodyweight using the calibrated syringe. Before the first dose, hold the syringe with the capped end pointing to the left and so that you can see the weight measurements and tick marks (small black lines). Set the syringe to zero by moving the dial ring so that the left side is set at the first full black mark and depress the plunger, safely discarding any paste that is expelled.

To dose the product, hold the syringe as previously described. Each tick mark relates to 25 kg bodyweight and to 10 mg moxidectin. Turn the dial ring until the left side of the ring lines up with the weight of the animal.

Use of a scale or weigh tape is recommended to ensure accurate dosing.

A single syringe treats a 700 kg horse.

To avoid overdosing, care should be taken to accurately dose foals, especially low bodyweight foals or young ponies.

Withdrawals

Meat and offal: 32 days.
