DIRECTIONS FOR USE: SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE
The recommended dose is 1mL Ultramax Equine per 50kg liveweight (equivalent to
200µg ivermectin per kg liveweight and 1.5 mg praziquantel per kg liveweight).
Ultramax Equine can be given as an oral drench or by stomach tube (nasogastric
intubation). Nasogastric intubation should only be done by a veterinarian or under
veterinary supervision.
Administration by oral drench: For administration by this method, an undiluted
dose is usually preferred. Clear the horse’s mouth of any food material, elevate the
horse’s head, and using a suitable dosing syringe, deposit the appropriate dose in the
back of the mouth. In order to avoid unnecessary coughing or the potential for material
to enter the trachea and lungs, do not use excessive pressure, do not use a large dose
volume of diluted Ultramax Equine, and do not deposit the dose in the laryngeal area.
Increased dose rejection may occur if the dose is deposited in the front of the mouth.
Keep the horse’s head elevated and observe the horse to ensure the dose is swallowed.
Administration by stomach tube (gravity or positive flow): Drenching horses by
nasogastric intubation requires specialised skills and knowledge. Special consideration
should be given to the effects of potential for injury from handling, restraint and placement
of the tube during administration by stomach tube. Nasogastric intubation should only
be done by a veterinarian or under veterinary supervision.
The recommended dose can be used diluted or undiluted up to approximately 40 times
with clean tepid water. Use tepid water to flush any drug remaining in the tube into the
horse’s stomach. Pour Ultramax Equine into a graduated cylinder for dose measurement.
Alternatively, use a calibrated dosing syringe inserted into the bottle to measure the
appropriate dose. Use a clean dry syringe if accessing the bottle to avoid contaminating
the remaining product.
Discard any unused diluted Ultramax Equine suspension 24 hours after dilution.
Develop a Regular Treatment Plan: All horses should be subject to regular worming
to maintain good health and peak condition. Particular attention should be given to young
horses and mares. Foals should be treated initially at 6 to 8 weeks of age and this treatment
repeated regularly as required. Frequency of treatment should be assessed by each
property’s veterinary adviser considering the number of horses, their age distribution,
reproductive status, stocking rate, grazing access, climate and property’s parasite
infestation status. Ultramax Equine is highly effective in the treatment and control of
most types of equine helminths including tapeworms, gastrointestinal, cutaneous and
pulmonary nematodes and bots of horses of any age. With a regular treatment program
the chances of verminous arteritis and colic caused by S. vulgaris will be reduced.
Safety in Using: Ultramax Equine may be used both in young foals and very old
animals. Mares may be treated at any stage of pregnancy and fertility will not be affected
in either sex. Swelling and itching reactions after treatment with Ultramax Equine have
occurred in horses carrying heavy infections of neck threadworm microfilariae, Onchocerca
sp. These reactions were most likely the result of microfilariae dying in large numbers.
Symptomatic treatment may be advisable.
Healing of summer sores involving extensive tissue changes may require other therapy in
conjunction with Ultramax Equine. Reinfection, and measures for its prevention should
also be considered.
DO NOT USE IN ANIMALS OTHER THAN HORSES
WITHHOLDING PERIOD:
MEAT WITHHOLDING PERIOD: DO NOT USE less than 28 days before
slaughter for human consumption.
