Re: [RC] [RC] OT-horse wormer question - Diane Trefethen

I was under the impression that the so-called Panacur Purge was only to be administered to horses who where up to date on their wormings and were NOT heavily infested. I believe it had to do with the massive worm kill that would result in a badly infested horse and that the slow movement of the dead worms gave them time to decay and release toxins that could be fatal to the horse, especially one in a weakened state. Could someone more knowledgeable about this technique write to clarify the issue?

I would begin with a fecal count to see how bad the infestation is.
Then I would do a Panacur Power Pack, double dose of panacur every day
for 10 days.
