Product Description:
Experts recommend dosing a horse with a larvacidal dewormer such as ivermectin or moxidectin before beginning administration of a daily dewormer, to help destroy existing larvae and adult parasites. Manufacturers also recommend horses receive ivermectin or moxidectin once or twice per year to control bots AND praziquantel or TapeCare Plus once or twice per year to control tapeworms.

Safe for use in pregnant mares and foals.
Instructions:
STRONGID® C 2X™ is to be administered on a continuous basis either as a top-dress or mixed in the horse’s daily grain ration at the rate of 1.2 mg pyrantel tartrate per pound of body weight daily. To achieve this dose, administer 0.5 oz of STRONGID C 2X per 250 lb of body weight. (A STRONGID® C 2X™ measuring cup is enclosed. Please note it is different in size and shape from the original STRONGID C measuring cup due to the higher concentration of STRONGID® C 2X™.) Strongid C2X should be administered for the entire period that the animal is at risk to internal parasites. Unprotected animals that have grazed may already have an established S. Vulgaris larval infestation. Before administering Strongid C2X, these animals should be treated with a therapetuc dose of a larvicidal product. Foals may be administered Strongid C2X as soon as consistent intake of graini mix is occurring. This is generally between 2 - 3 months of age. Strongid C 2X may be used in mares at any stage of pregnancy or lactation. Stallion fertility is not affected by the use of STRONGID® C 2X™. Up to 250lbs .5oz daily 250lbs - 500lbs 1oz daily 500lbs-750lbs 1.5oz daily 750lbs-1000lbs 2oz daily 1000lbs-1250lbs 2.5oz daily
