Mystiqview Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 mysticview Panacur is not a mectin based wormer, it is Fenbendazole. You'll find it's going to be the same advice, see a vet for off label prescription as the dogs can suffer allergies to it. Been years since I used it. Thanks for correcting my memory. I need to stay away from Ivemectin, I should of known better before posting.. However I know some who swear by it for worming. Don't know if it does heartworm though. I use Interceptor for my guys. Found it works well. Don't use spectrum as I found the flea component in it useless. Always advocate reading the label before you use any product..

Everythings Shiny Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I would be shot by my vet if I offered Sheep Ivermectin as a wormer or heartwormer. It's not something you should play around with. There are cheaper brands that can be used that are safer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaffy Magee Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Sorry guys, I completely forgot I started this thread! I was not comfortable using it hence why I declined when offered some. I have bullmastiffs and so does my friend and a few others that I know use it, plus I had heard of heaps of people using. All their dogs are fine, but Im still a worrier when it comes to my dogs and I just wanted other peoples opinions/knowledge. I have 6 dogs and of course the cost of heartworming, flea trreatment, all wormer, food etc is expensive and I try to save money when I can but, no, I will not try and save money if it is detriment to my dogs health. Thanks Nekhbet, will check that site out now! Thank you to everyone who replied, I think I'll leave it for now. Im not comfortable using something that has not been recommended by a vet, so until that day comes I'll just stick to what Im, doing now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
