Title: Panacur Granules
Post by: Weaner on January 14, 2014, 04:02:11 pm

My vet is having problems sourcing Panacur 1.5% granules for worming.
I find granules very easy to use, is there an alternative product ?

I couldn't find a stockist of Panacur granules either (darn it, so convenient, as you say).  Have switched to Flubenol, from Mole Valley Farmers.

Noromectin injected it's only about 12 quid for a 50ml bottle and you only use 1ml per 30kg bodyweight so goes a long way.

My vet gave me panacur liquid.

Also had trouble getting thro my usual ag merchant they seemed to think they had been discontinued for pigs as not worth the manufacturers worthwhile so I too have switched to Flubernol for my big rhinoserous skinned large pigs who are tres difficult to jab and use Noramectin jabs for weaners, it is good to change wormers now and then as resistance can build up.
