Daily Wormers - Again!

I hate to bring this up again (we had a thread on this back in 96Jan).
I checked the archives on the subject and found that at least 3 people
had (or knew of others who had) experienced problems with anemia after
prolonged use of Strongid C.

Several others endorsed the product highly, and one person asked for
research regarding ill effects of the product. None were offer to the
list (perhaps in private?)

So, back to it: Has any research been done to confirm whether or not
prolonged use of Strongid C causes anemia? And, if it does cause
anemia, would it help if I fed Red Cell with it?

BTW, the reason I'm asking is that my vet has suggested that I use it on
my horse...he (Moose) is very susceptable to respiratory viruses. The
vet suggested increasing his flu/rhino booster from every 3 months to
every 2 months, and using the daily wormer for 2 months to see if it
would make a difference.

If you have any other suggestions, I'd like to hear them.
Thanks,
Kathy
