STARMEC^® LV POUR-ON FOR CATTLE

Active Ingredient: Iver-mectin @ 10mg/mL

Similar to: Genesis^® Pour-On (Merial) & Virbamec^® LV (Virbac)

Starmec^® LV is a ready to use low volume endectocide backline pour-on for beef and dairy cattle, containing Iver-mectin. Iver-mectin belongs to the macrocyclic lactone (ML) class of endectocides with broad spectrum of activity against adult and larval stages of parasitic nematodes. Starmec^® LV offers reliable parasite control and excellent sustained activity for small brown stomach worm, lungworm and buffalo fly to reduce larval pasture contamination and assist in buffalo fly control.

The convenience of the low volume formulation means that Starmec^® LV will treat the same number of cattle at half the volume of other ML pour-ons. The concentrated dose means large cattle (600kg liveweight) can be dosed with one squeeze of a standard 30mL pour-on applicator. With less weight to handle, Starmec LV offers easier application, transport and storage.

PRODUCT BENEFITS:

• Controls both internal and external parasites.
• Low volume pour-on application for easy handling and application
• Starmec^® LV Pour-On works using a unique vegetable oil based Iver-mectin formulation, so it is non-flammable, non-volatile and very safe.
• Wide margin of safety when used as directed
• With Starmec^® LV Pour-On's Nil Milk Withholding period, you can be sure that every cow you milk will return the maximum yield.
