Durvet Duramectin Ivermectin Paste 1.87% for Horses, 0.21 oz

Very good

This works fantastic! The taste isn’t the greatest but let’s be real, it’s dewormer… black walnut and wormwood work similar and they both taste far worse 😂. It doesn’t really smell like anything at all and comes out clear (almost like a thick glue or rubber consistency). The price point is great and is safe to use for animals if used properly and follow the instructions accordingly. Will definitely be purchasing more from this seller.

I have recommended this for our horses. In the past, I’ve had past that were too thick. And that allowed the horse to spit the stuff back out pretty fast. The stuff is thinner it runs in, if you do it right on the back of their tongue, it runs right down their throat! Less icky taste for them in their mouth, and they ingest what you paid for. No waste. A couple of years ago, I started giving the horses about 30 mL of unsweetened apple sauce in a large syringe. I think I found them on Amazon and it was like five or six in a package. There’s no needles of course. Just the barrel of the thing the plunger and the narrower spout, if you want to call it that. I say “Applesauce!” And then let the sniff the end of the syringe. They like the smell. And then overtime they’ve learned to hold out their head and I stick the spout at the corner of their lips and depress the plunger. so the other night, I went to do the first horse. I said “Applesauce,” and he looked interested, and let me stick the end of the syringe into the corner of his lips (at the side where the top and bottom lip come together). And I depressed the plunger and he thought that was pretty tasty stuff. The key here is to the applesauce in syringe every night. The horse becomes conditioned to the treat and it keeps him (or her) in a helpful mind set for when you do have to have to give wormer. Next step was to take the syringe of warmer and insert in mouth. I worked it a bit to get to the back of his tongue or where I THOUGHT the the back of his tongue was, and I think I did it right because when I depressed the plunger absolutely nothing came back out of his mouth! I just hate it when you pay all this money for wormer, only to watch the stuff get flung in messy white gobs all over the place (on you, the horse, the barn, etc.) This was immediately followed up by a second syringe of more applesauce. The horse was pleasantly surprised. A win-win. A thanks to Clinton Anderson of Down Under Horsemanship for this little trick.

The horse was me. The size the horse took was a pea. It was each day for a week. Roundworms the horse did see. I think the horse is now free. Neigh.

Great but it’s a yellow gel. Apple flavored, but not the white paste most of us are used to. The gel is too harsh for me to get down. I’m not a vet and not giving medical advice. I’m cautioning you for dogs: *if u are dosing your dog , keep in mind this is 1.87% which is almost 2x as strong as the normal dog dose (1% for dogs is what vets prescribe), which can harm your dog if u give it too much! Also, ** some breeds like Collies, border collies, Australian shepherds , (and occasionally German shepherds), and a few other breeds have a an MDR1 gene that makes this TOXIC to them because it won’t protect it from entering the brain. For those breeds you’ll need to go to your vet so u don’t harm your dog, or have him end up in the hospital or lose him to the rainbow bridge!! Google to see if your dog breed is susceptible to ivermectin toxicity. They also say “white feet don’t treat” with ivermectin . If they have the MDR1 gene it will cross the blood-brain barrier and poison/shut down their neurological system, cause blindness, lethargy, disorientation, clumsiness, can’t walk, can’t control urine or bowels, vomiting, and they can quit breathing!!. If any symptoms show up in your dog call vet immediately. My German shepherd is a lighter tan color (more susceptible to having the gene) but has a hardly noticeable whitish spot on his paw. Wasn’t until his 4th dose I noticed he was having any issues or reaction. Be careful!
