Oral Drenching For Sheep?

Question

Could someone please send me a website with lots of info on oral drenching for sheep?

I also need to know the adverse effects for this product (If any).

I don't want the method just information about it.

I will pick a best answer so good answers please =]

Answer 1

Premier may have something, I'm not sure.  I drench for internal parasites because it's safe and quick.  When injected, Velamisole can have a deadly reaction, when used orally, it is effective but not deadly.  Be somewhat skeptical when reading wormer recommendations made by pharmacutical companies, their advise is the reason many wormers are no longer effective.

Try  www.sheepmagazine.com/issues/27/27-5/Joh... for an article on using cultural and management methods to control worms.

Answer 2

The effects of oral drenching in sheep are going to depend on the kind of medication in the drench. There are many different drenches available. I'm sending you information on four or five different types of drench. You can draw your own conclusions about the effectiveness and adverse effects of each one. Most of the sites are put out by the company who market the product, but They have to be very straightforward about information put out about medicines.
