Panacur Paste 10% Cautions

1) Certain species of small strongyles have become resistant to most anthelmintics belonging to the benzimidazole family of compounds, including fenbendazole. 2) In suspected cases of larval cyathosomosis, the prognosis is usually guarded since the underlying pathology can be severe without the animals showing marked clinical signs. 3) Consult your veterinarian regarding the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitism in horses.
