[Comparison of the efficacy of ivermectin in injectable form and as a paste in horses].
A comparison was made of the efficacy of Ivermectin administered as an injection and as a paste. Fourteen horses which were naturally infected with small strongyles were divided into three groups. Animals of group 1 received an injection of 5 ml Ivermectin, equivalent to 500 kg bodyweight, horses of group 2 received one injector with Ivermectin as a paste (for 500 kg body weight), a third group remained untreated as a control. Faecal examinations and larval cultures on the day of treatment and 14, 28 and 42 days later showed that both injection and paste had a 100 percent efficacy against mature and immature small strongyles in these horses.
