None are licenced for pigs - it costs too much as only outdoor smallholders use and Defra charge the earth for licencing, so Panacur was the only one, and that has been withdrawn.

Several others are licenced for use for pigs in Eire (as indeed Panacur still is), and more that are licenced for sheep and cattle in UK are fully effective for pigs, but not legally licenced.

It's a money thing !
