Dosage and Administration
- The dosage of oxibendazole is 10 mg/kg

Each mark on the syringe delivers ANTHELCIDE EQ to treat
100 lb (67 lb for strongyloides).
- Horses maintained on premises where
reinfection is likely to occur should be retreated in 6
to 8 weeks.
- ANTHELCIDE EQ is compatible with carbon
disulfide, which can be used concurrently for bot
control (Gasterophilus spp.) when administered by
a veterinarian. Routine carbon disulfide cautions must
be observed.
- Determine the weight of the horse and
dial the correct setting on the plunger, having the side
of the wheel nearest the barrel on the desired mark.
Remove the cap from the syringe. Insert the tip of the
syringe into the side of the animal’s mouth between
the incisor and molar teeth and press the plunger down
as far as it will go, depositing the paste on the back
of the tongue.
