Product Description
Ammo All Wormer Horse Paste (Red) 32.5gm (Mint)
Ammo Allwormer Paste kills roundworm, tapeworm and bots as well as preventing skin lesions caused by biting external parasites (Habronema and Draschia spp.)
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.
Contains Abermectin and Morantel Tartrate. Ideal to rotate with your usual wormers to help prevent a build up of worm resistance.
Use every 6-8 weeks from 6 weeks of age.
Composition
- Abamectin 4 mg/g
- Morantel Tartrate 167 mg/g
Actions
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.
