Title: Levamisole for pigs
Post by: JMB on May 11, 2013, 03:26:34 pm

Hi.
We have decided to worm the pigs before we move them. Because we have fluke here we have dosed before with Fasimec Duo ( triclabendazole for fluke,  ivermectin for worms). This is for sheep really but vet said it was ok.
Another product we have, Combinex, contains a different wormer- levamisole.
According to the Internet, levamisole is ok for pigs.
Can anyone confirm this please?
Thank you
Joanne xxxxx

A quick telephone call to your vet will give you the correct answer.
