FAQs

Can I use Eqvalan for tapeworms?

No, this product does not treat tapeworms. You should use Eqvalan Duo if tapeworm treatment is required.

Is it safe for pregnant mares?

Yes, this formulation is safe for use in pregnant mares and young foals.

How many kilograms does one syringe treat?

Each syringe is designed to provide a full treatment for a horse or donkey weighing up to 600kg.

What happens if my dog eats this paste?

Dogs and cats may be adversely affected by the ivermectin concentration. Seek veterinary attention immediately if ingestion occurs.

How often should I deworm my horse?

Consult with your local veterinarian to establish a parasite control program tailored to your specific region and management practices.

Troubleshooting

Horse spits out the paste

Ensure the head is held elevated and the paste is placed well back on the tongue to trigger the swallowing reflex.

Unsure of exact animal weight

Use a weight tape or a scale to get an accurate reading; do not guess the weight as this leads to incorrect dosing.

Suspected resistance or parasite burden

Consult your veterinarian to perform a fecal egg count test to determine if the current deworming program is effective.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before administration, always weigh your horse or donkey to ensure accurate dosing; under-dosing can contribute to parasite resistance. Store the syringe in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This product is strictly for equine use. Keep the syringe securely stored away from other household pets, specifically dogs and cats, as the high concentration of ivermectin can cause severe adverse reactions if ingested by them. After use, replace the cap to prevent contamination and dispose of the empty syringe according to local veterinary waste guidelines.
