Pentamox Mineralised Oral Drench For Sheep treats and controls moxidectin-sensitive gastrointestinal parasites (including benzimidazole and/or levamisole-resistant strains), lungworms and itch mites of sheep. It also aids in the control of selenium-responsive conditions. It can be used to supplement diets that may be deficient in selenium, cobalt, copper, zinc and iodine.
Pentamox contains moxidectin, a second-generation macrocyclic lactone endectocide that is effective against internal and external parasites sensitive to this molecular/active substance family.

Pentamox Mineralised Oral Drench For Sheep is effective against benzimidazole and levamisole-resistant strains of H. contortus, T. colubriformis and T. circumcincta.
Pentamox Mineralised Oral Drench For Sheep has shown efficacy against a number of ivermectin-resistant strains of H. contortus and Teladorsagia (Ostertagia) spp. However, as Pentamox shares a similar mode of action to the avermectins, it should not be used where avermectin resistance is present, except where specifically recommended by an advisor.
