Abamectin acts by binding selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride channels in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells.

This leads to hyperpolarisation of these cells, resulting in flaccid paralysis and death of the parasite.

Morantel is a depolarising neuromuscular blocking agent producing paralysis by causing muscle contraction.

Dosage and Administration Horses:

The contents of one 32.5 g syringe are sufficient to treat one horse of 600 kg bodyweight. Doses are described in mL, corresponding to the markings on the dial-a-dose syringe.

Foals and Ponies: administer 5 mL per 100 kg bodyweight.

AMMO ALLWORMER is safe for use in pregnant mares, in foals over one week of age, and in debilitated & convalescent animals.

A year round worming prevention and treatment program varies with climatic and stocking conditions, but, in general terms all horses should be wormed every 6 - 8 weeks, commencing at approximately 6 weeks of age.
