Eqvalan Gold is used for the treatment and control of multiple internal worms in horses. It contains two active ingredients- Ivermectin and Praziquantel. These ingredients cause muscle spasms in worms, which eventually end up dying because of paralysis. The dewormer also helps in preventing future infestation.
Eqvalan Gold dewormer paste is effective against intestinal worms including tapeworms, roundworms (including large and small strongyles, hairworms, pinworms, ascarids, neck threadworms, threadworms, large-mouth stomachworms, lungworms, and summer sores), and bots. It is safe to use on foals older than 6 months old, and pregnant and nursing mares.

Stallions: Treat twice a year.
Foals: Administer proper dose for strategic treatment at 6-8 week intervals.
