Ammo Horse Wormer

Active Constituents : 4mg/g Abamectin, 167mg/g Morantel Tartrate

Broad spectrum Abamectin and Morantel Tartrate horse worm and bot paste
Abamectin acts by binding selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride channels in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells
This leads to hyperpolarisation of these cells, resulting in flaccid paralysis and death of the parasite
Morantel is a depolarising neuromuscular blocking agent producing paralysis by causing muscle contraction

For treatment and control of tapeworms (A.perfoliata) and roundworms, including ivermectin and abamectin resistant strains of Parascaris equorum, arterial larval stages of Strongylus vulgaris and benzimidazole resistant small strongyles, bots and skin lesions caused by Habronema and Draschia spp. (summer sores) and Onchocerca spp. microfiliariae (cutaneous onchocerciasis).

Notes:

A year round worming prevention and treatment program varies with climatic and stocking conditions, but, in general terms all horses should be wormed every 6-8 weeks, commencing at approximately 6 weeks of age
All horses newly introduced to a property should be wormed immediately on arrival, and kept away from regularly used paddocks or yards for several days in order to minimise environmental recontamination.
