STRONGID P GRANULES - HORSE WORMER
Strongid P Contain pyrantel effective against adult large and small redworms, ascarids, pinworms and at a double dose, some tapeworms. It does not kill worm eggs, larvae, lungworms or bots. Tapeworms are carried by forage mites which eat the tapeworm eggs and are swallowed in turn by the grazing horses. The tapeworm dose is TWICE that needed for other worms ie four sachets for an average horse and may be given twice a year at beginning and end of the grazing season. Normal roundworm dosage needs to be repeated every 4 - 6 weeks. Remember two sachets of Strongid P Granules are equivalent to one tube of paste so that a ‘roundworm dose’ is two sachets for the average horse and ‘tapeworm double dose’ is four sachets.

Dosage and administration
Administration Strongid-P Granules is recommended for feed or stomach-tube administration in horses, ponies and foals of over four weeks of age and donkeys. It is not necessary to withhold any feed prior to administration. Use medicated feed or suspension immediately after mixing. If only part of a sachet of granules has been used (see contra-indications, warnings, etc) fold the opened edge and store in a cool dry place. Any part used sachet should be stored below 25°C and used within two months. Feed Strongid-P Granules should be dispersed evenly in the feed – preferably a relatively reduced quantity to ensure consumption. Any unconsumed medicated feed should be discarded. Stomach-tube Strongid-P Granules suspends in warm water and it may be administered by a veterinary surgeon via a stomach-tube. Add the required amount of Strongid-P Granules to warm water and stir immediately before use. Dosage For the control and treatment of strongyles including benzimidazole resistant strains (redworm), Oxyuris (seatworm/pinworm) and Parascaris (roundworm). Strongid-P should be used at a dose rate of 19 mg pyrantel embonate per kg bodyweight. Sachet pack 1 sachet per 300 kg (660 lb) bodyweight.

Routinely dose every six to eight weeks, but during the summer and autumn when at grass dose every four to six weeks. Always dose three to four days before turning out after in-wintering. Suckler mares It has been shown that reduction of strongyle challenge to the suckling foal at pasture can be achieved by using clean pasture (re-seeded or not grazed the previous year by horses), dosing the mare three to four days before turning out and then at intervals of two to four weeks until the end of autumn. Ideally mares with foals should go out to `clean' pasture or, if this is not possible, delay turning them out until June.
