Moxidectin: 0.4mg/kg
Praziquantel: 2.5mg/kg
Equest Gel is conveniently supplied in a ready-to-use syringe calibrated according to the body weight of the horse to be treated. One syringe is sufficient to treat a horse weighing 575 kg. However for heavier horses exceeding 575 kg additional syringes may be required.
For example a 725 kg horse would require 1¼ syringes to achieve accurate dosing. To determine the amount to administer with the second syringe simply subtract 575 from the horse's weight and set the plunger accordingly. In the case of a 725 kg horse set the plunger on the second syringe to 150 kg (725 kg – 575 kg).
