Benzimidazole susceptible adult and immature small strongyles (Cyathostomes).
The product is also effective for the treatment and control of encysted mucosal 3rd and 4th stage small strongyle larvae and is also effective against encysted inhibited 3rd stage small strongyle larvae in the mucosa.
Adult and immature Oxyuris spp., Strongyloides spp. and Parascaris equorum.
Fenbendazole also has an ovicidal effect on nematode eggs.

For administration to horses, thoroughly mix the product with grain or concentrate feed and give the full dosage as one administration.
Treatment should be repeated when natural re-infection of animals with parasitic worms occurs.
Horses:
Recommended dosage programme
All horses should be routinely wormed with the single dose regimen every 6-8 weeks.
Treatment of encysted inhibited and encysted mucosal dwelling larvae should be performed in the autumn (ideally late October/November) and again in the Spring (ideally in February). However, for horses who fail to maintain condition or bought-in horses with unknown worming history, the treatment can be given at any time of the year.
Five day course
For the treatment and control of migrating and tissue larval stages of large strongyles, encysted mucosal 3rd and 4th stage small strongyle larvae and encysted inhibited 3rd stage small strongyle larvae in the mucosa administer 5 ml of the product per 64 kg body weight daily for 5 days (= 7.5 mg fenbendazole/kg body weight daily for 5 days).
Single dose treatment
For the treatment and control of encysted mucosal stages of small strongyles administer 3 ml of the product per 10 kg body weight (= 30 mg fenbendazole / kg body weight).
For the treatment and control of migrating and tissue stages of large strongyles administer 6 ml of the product per 10 kg body weight (= 60 mg fenbendazole / kg body weight).
For the treatment of diarrhoea cause by Strongyloides westeri in two to three week old sucking foals administer 5 ml of the product per 10kg body weight (= 50mg fenbendazole / kg body weight).
