IAH - MecWorma and Tape Allwormer - Farnam
FARNAM® MECWORMA® & TAPE ALLWORMER is a highly effective broad spectrum anthelmintic achieving up to 100% worm kill (including benzimidazole resistant strains).
MECWORMA® & TAPE ALLWORMER utilises a combination of two horse wormers from different classes, abamectin (macrocyclic lactone) and morantel tartrate (tetrahydropyrimidine). Abamectin and morantel tartrate are both broad spectrum anthelmintics that allow for combined treatment and control of both large and small strongyles, tapeworm, cutaneous onchocerciasis and nematodes including Habronema and Draschia spp. which cause skin lesions (summer sores).
FARNAM® MECWORMA® & TAPE ALLWORMER contains abamectin, which is the only natural form of the macrocyclic lactone group of anthelmintics. Macrocyclic lactone compounds have revolutionised the control of parasites in animals and are generally regarded as the most effective, least toxic and non-carcinogenic parasiticides yet developed.
FARNAM® MECWORMA® & TAPE paste is easy to administer under a wide range of conditions, with a smooth, sticky consistency that is well accepted.
MECWORMA® & TAPE ALLWORMER has a wide safety margin at the recommended dose level when administered to foals, pregnant mares, and aged or debilitated horses.
