Virbamec LV Pour-On For Cattle is for treating and controlling Ivermectin-sensitive internal and external parasites of beef and dairy cattle.

What Is Virbamec LV Pour-On?

  • A macrocyclic lactone (ML) or “mectin” class pour-on drench for cattle
  • Contains Ivermectin
  • Broad spectrum control of internal and external parasites
  • Low volume formulation (15L Virbamec is Equiv. to 30L normal strength drench)
  • Non-flammable, low odour vegetable oil base

Why Choose Virbamec LV Pour-On?

  • Control of internal parasites – Virbamec LV Pour-On offers excellent control and a high level of efficacy against Ivermectin-sensitive gastrointestinal roundworms and lungworms. It also offers persistent activity against lungworm (up to 28 days) and small brown stomach worms (Ostertagia spp) (up to 14 days).
  • Control external parasites –  Virbamec LV Pour-On offers excellent control of sucking and biting lice, mites and cattle ticks. It also controls buffalo flies and protects cattle from reinfestation for up to 21 days.
  • Low volume dose –  The low volume dose of Virbamec LV Pour-On makes it easy to apply, even to large animals, and provides the convenience of fewer drums to clean and dispose of.
  • User-friendly vegetable oil formulation – Virbamec LV Pour-On’s vegetable oil formulation means that it has no offensive fumes, is easy on applicator guns, flows steadily from the gun and is less likely to splash or run off the animal’s back than solvent-based pour-on. Virbamec LV Pour-On is also non-flammable.
  • Rainfast –  The efficacy of Virbamec LV Pour-On is unlikely to be affected if rain falls as soon as two hours after application.
  • Nil milk withholds –  Virbamec LV Pour-On can be used on lactating dairy cows, giving dairy farmers the flexibility to treat their animals at the optimal time.
  • Short meat withholding period and ESI – Virbamec LV Pour-On has a short meat withholding period and export slaughter interval of 21 days, allowing producers the flexibility to market animals as soon as a real benefit from treatment is seen.

  1. Q Should ivermectin be stored in the fridge?
    Asked by Mandy Macleod on December 24, 2021 7:07 am
    Answered by the admin

    Ivermectin (including Virbamec LV Pour-On) should be stored below 30 Degrees Celsius (room temperature) and protected from light.  Ivermectin will be severely damaged if allowed to overheat (>30o) or freeze.  It does not need to be kept in a fridge when not in use.

Tips For Use

When to Use Virbamec Lv Pour-On:

Timing of treatments

Virbamec LV Pour-On provides broad-spectrum control that can be used to suppress parasite populations at strategic times. For instance, an early spring treatment can reduce parasite problems occurring later in summer and autumn, while a pre-winter treatment can be used to suppress early louse populations and also to clean out any parasites picked up over the warmer months before the animals facing the feed stresses of winter. Specific treatments may also be required to limit the impact of parasites when animals need to perform at their best and can least afford losses from disease. Important treatments include:

  • Weaning and post-weaning – Calves often suffer substantial nutritional and environmental stress when weaned, but any check to their growth at this stage can lead to stunting and permanent underperformance.
  • Pre-joining – Body condition plays a key role in conception rates. Treating bulls and cows about a month before joining can minimise nutritional losses associated with parasitic disease.
  • Pre-calving – Cows cannot afford losses to parasites and provide the best milk output.

Tick treatments

Virbamec LV Pour-On can be part of a strategic tick control program. Treatments should be timed for when other parasites, such as roundworms, require control, and repetitive use of the product (or any ML) throughout the entire tick season should be avoided.

Worm testing

Worm egg counts provide valuable information to optimise drench timing. Egg counts will reveal production limiting worm infections long before clinical signs such as scouring or wasting are evident. A larval differentiation assay provides identification of the worm species present so that the optimal type of drench can be selected. As adult cattle generally develop good immunity to worms, egg counts are not a reliable indicator of worm burdens in cattle after about 12 months of age.

Precautions:

Temporary hair loss may occur at the site of application. This resolves without treatment.

Not recommended for use before events in show cattle.

Re Treatment Interval:

Do not retreat with Virbamec LV Pour-On within 21 days.

First Aid:

  • If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone Australia 131 126.
  • For further information, refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
