Combination Oral Anthelmintic For Sheep And Lambs

Tips For Use

Advice On Use:

• WSD Combination Drench is a broad-spectrum treatment that is highly effective against mature and immature worm parasites on many Australian farms.
• The use of WSD Combination Drench drench is indicated in strategic programs to reduce pasture contamination when testing has shown it to be effective against local worm parasites.
• The simultaneous administration of a BZ and levamisole may be effective against worm parasites resistant to either drenches administered singly or against strains of Ostertagia resistant to ML drenches. It is advisable to test efficacy before relying on combination as a strategic treatment.
• On many farms, WSD Combination Drench is an effective treatment for worm infestations due to stomach, small and large bowel parasites. It is particularly useful to treat an infestation by mature and immature worms in animals grazing pastures known to be moderately or heavily contaminated with worm larvae.
• WSD Combination Drench is highly effective but without residual effect against barber pole worm (Haemonchus) and can be used to treat haemonchosis.
• Levamisole may be toxic. It is recommended that sheep or lambs should NOT be fasted before the administration of any drench containing levamisole.
• The repeated use of any drench is likely to result in the emergence of resistance in worm parasites and, therefore, regular testing for efficacy is recommended.
