Ultimum is a broad spectrum and long-acting horse wormer and boticide gel which contains the active ingredients moxidectin and praziquantel.

Ultimum is indicated for the control of tapeworm and all important susceptible strains of gastrointestinal roundworms, including adult and encysted stages (DL, LL3, EL4) and benzimidazoleresistant strains of small strongyles, and aids in control of early encysted stages (EL3), including inhibited larvae.

When used as directed, Ultimum is safe in foals over 4 weeks of age and in all breeding stock, including stallions and pregnant mares.

• Ultimum is a palatable and effective gel.
• Developed and made in Australia.
• Treats horses up to 700 kg.

Why Choose Ultimum?
TIMELY - Ultimum is recommended for horses with a suspected large burden of encysted small strongyles (roundworms) typically in late Autumn or early Spring. It is also recommended for new horses arriving on a property with an unknown worming history.
TARGETED - Ultimum is the ideal wormer for young and adult horses with a suspected large burden of encysted small strongyles. It is also recommended for new horses arriving on a property with an unknown worming history.
POWERFUL - Ultimum contains moxidectin, a powerful and persistent second-generation ‘mectin’. When administered as part of Virbac’s Gold Standard strategic worming program, ULTIMUM provides horses effective and sustainable worm control in conjunction with EQUIMAX, EQUIMAX ELEVATION and STRATEGY-T. The Egg Reappearance Period (ERP) for ULTIMUM is at least 14 weeks, which means that recontamination of the pasture by strongyle eggs is significantly reduced during this period. It is important to note that resistance may develop to any chemical.
PALATABLE - Ultimum is an oral gel and easy to administer.
AUSTRALIAN - Developed and made in Australia specifically for Australian conditions.

Recommended for:
Yearling to Adult Horses: Ultimum may be recommended for horses with a suspected large burden of encysted small strongyle larvae.
High Shedders: Treatment with Ultimum may be recommended for horses with repeated high faecal egg counts and suspected large burden of small strongyles.
Quarantined / New Horses: Ultimum is recommended for new horses arriving on a property with an unknown worming history. Horses that are below 2 years of age should be given 2 separate worming products i.e. Ultimum and Strategy-T, but for horses over 2 years of age treat with Ultimum or as recommended by your veterinarian.

COMPOSITION:
Moxidectin 20mg/mL
Praziquantel 125mg/mL

SIZES:
14.4 g single syringe
Stable pail containing 50 tubes

How often should I use Ultimum?
Ultimum is a long-acting wormer and should be used as part of a strategic worming program rather than at regular intervals. It provides an extended egg reappearance period of at least 14 weeks, and for most adult horses is typically used once per year, often timed in late autumn or early spring, or when faecal egg counts or veterinary advice indicate it is needed.

Livamol with BioWorma is a nutritional supplement containing the natural biological control, BioWorma, that captures and consumes infective worm larvae (including chemical resistant/anthelmintic multi-resistant larvae) within the manure of grazing animals.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Dosage and Administration: Dose Livamol with BioWorma according to bodyweight.

1. For best results, treat animals with a suitable chemical wormer/anthelmintic.

2. Ideally, where possible, move the treated animals onto low worm pasture (that is, pasture that has not been grazed by the same animal species for a minimum 6 weeks).

3. The most worm susceptible are young animals (from 3 months up to 18-24 months of age) and periparturient females (last month of pregnancy and while producing milk) as they are the most likely to have less resistance to worm infestation due to low immunity. Pasture contamination by adult stock, even with low faecal egg counts (FEC), should not be underestimated considering the volume of faecal material they place on pasture.

4. Commence daily feeding of Livamol with BioWorma to minimise pasture infectivity and maintain the animalÍs low worm status. The product will not reduce pre-existing larval pasture contamination. Thoroughly mix Livamol with BioWorma with feed or feed supplements.

5. Livamol with BioWorma will begin to work immediately within the manure of treated animals, and for best results may be fed continuously when climatic conditions are conducive to BioWorma and parasitic nematode activity.

6. Livamol with BioWorma is recommended for strategic use during periods when weather conditions are conducive to larval development and transmission onto pasture at temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius.

7. Use in conjunction with a recommended worm management strategy for your area by contacting your Veterinarian, Animal Health Advisor or Government Advisory groups for a strategic Integrated Parasite Management (IPM) plan. It is important to consider the principles of refugia.

8. Faecal egg counts (FECs) may be useful to monitor the effectiveness of the worm management strategy. Other options may include faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT) and/or identifying worm species by using faecal larval cultures (FLC).

For oral administration. The required amount of BioWorma should be thoroughly mixed into feed, supplements, premixes, concentrates or loose mixes.

DAILY FEEDING RATES

* Dose according to the heaviest animal in the group. ** Use an additional 100g for each 100kg thereafter. A standard coffee mug (300mL) holds 200g Livamol with Bioworma.

WITHHOLDING PERIOD: Meat: Zero (0) days; Milk: NIL Zero (0) days

Equimax Elevation offers 3 way action for complete protection. There is no horse wormer on the market quite like Equimax Elevation. A unique formulation of three active ingredients designed to combat mectin resistance, Equimax Elevation is particularly suitable for worming young horses from 6 weeks to 24 months.

That's because young horses need special protection from potentially mectin resistant ascarids, a problem worm in horses under two years old. Ascarids can build up to life threatening numbers in a short time, causing severe blockages in a young horses comparatively smaller intestinal tract or permanently damaging their developing lungs. Equimax Elevation completely protects young horses from ascarids, as well as all other worms.
 
INDICATIONS:
Equimax Elevation is a broad-spectrum worming paste that is up to 100% effective in treating all major internal parasites in horses including:

• Large strongyles (Strongylus vulgaris, Strongylus edentatus,Strongylus equinus and Triodontophorus spp.)
• Small strongyles including benzimidazole resistant strains (Cyathostomum spp., Cylicocyclus spp., Cylicostephanus spp.,Cylicodontophorus spp., Gyalocephalus spp.)
• Ascarids (Parascaris equorum)
• Pinworms (Oxyuris equi)
• Hairworms (Trichostrongylus axei)
• Large mouthed stomach worms (Habronema muscae)
• Lungworms (Dictyocaulus arnfieldi)
• Neck and intestinal threadworms (Onchocerca spp.,Strongyloides westeri)
• All three species of tapeworms (Anoplocephala perfoliata,Anoplocephala magna, Paranoplocephala mammillana)
• All three species of bots (Gasterophilus spp.)

Equimax Elevation also controls:

• Skin lesions caused by Habronema and Draschia spp.
• Cutaneous larvae (summer sores) Onchocerca spp. Microfilariae

Equimax Elevation has a double action against nematodes and tapeworms due to the combination of the three actives ivermectin,praziquantel and pyrantel. Additionally, the double action is considered to delay the onset of resistance to either anthelminitic.
