Equimec Horse Paste
Equimec Paste is an oral, broad-spectrum treatment for horses. This paste is formulated to protect equines against various internal parasites, including Pinworms, Hairworms, roundworms, large mouth stomach worms, neck threadworms, intestinal threadworms, and Lungworms. Plus, it also effectively treats and controls roundworms including the arterial larval stages of Strongylus vulgaris and benzimidazole-resistant small strongyles. This low-dose formula treats and controls skin lesions caused by Habronema and summer sores. It is suitable for all horses off all age groups and comes with a convenient trigger applicator that ensures easy and accurate dosing.
How does it work?
Equimec Paste contains Ivermectin, which works in providing effective protection against a broad range of internal parasites. The active ingredient present in the paste disrupts the nerve and muscle functions of parasites and eliminates them by causing paralysis and eventual death.
