IVOMEC

[lurcher330 2,297]

can Ivomec be used as a spot on i know it is meant to be injected under the skin but i think someone told me that it can be used like a spot on

[SNAP SHOT 194]

NO it cannot be used as a spot on, As there is no alchol based synthetic compound to transfer the substance into the bloodstream,

 

And regardless if you read that it can on the net i assure you it cannot...

1mill is ok for dogs mate..how much do you inject into the dog

the dog only got .5mm and this big lump was given 5 mm and it dropped him

[SNAP SHOT 194]

If the dog is collie in the bloodline then there is a mutant gene which means most collies cannot break down the ivermectin compound,

 

And isn't licenced for horse in ireland, if your looking for a good wormer for horses try panacur 10% for cattle and horses,

 

its an excellent product,

 

And for the dogs a cheap wormer for cattle or sheep containing 2.265% oxfenbendazole will surfice, given over three days... at a small dose rate,

snap there you are! good advice there.. you must be on the up

[SNAP SHOT 194]

Also another point which i forgot to add that if the bottle of ivomec is open more than 28 days the compound becomes toxic within the animal

 

just another point to watch out for, And for those of you taht do inject the dogs, keep one neddle to draw from the bottle, and another to injsect,

 

most this way withdraw the neddle within the bottle and seal with candle wax,

 

hi main man, yeah still here, just don't find much to post on here these days, So i just keep my head down.

not 100% but i think it can be given it orally but id check with vets,they can prescribe a spot on called advocate for similar things atb

[SNAP SHOT 194]

Oh and as for on the up, Have to move forward mate, otherwise i'd never be happy, Time to stop caring about those that don't reciprocate,

 

its been a difficult time, but hopefully i'm stronger for it...

i use the advocate all the time it's just a mate gave me a full bottle of it last night but i don't think i will bother using it i will give to a farmer as an ice breaker to getting some permission

[mC HULL 12,542]

forgot to add the spot on advocate also cant be used in collies,sheep dogs atb

i have used advocate on my collie based lurchers with no problems and a vet once told me that any dog can be illergic to ivomec but the reason it is mostly seen in collies is that farmers use ivomec and they mostly keep collies
