Equimax is Australias most trusted broad-spectrum wormer for horses.

This broad-spectrum horse worming paste is for the treatment and control of susceptible tapeworms and roundworms (including arterial larval stages of Strongylus vulgaris and benzimidazole resistant small strongyles), bots, and skin lesions caused by Habronema and Draschia spp. (summer sores) and Onchocerca spp. microfilariae (cutaneous onchocerciasis).

A combination of abamectin and praziquantel in Equimax provides a broad-spectrum anti-parasiticide for total control of all susceptible equine worms, bots, lungworms, intestinal threadworms, tapeworms and skin parasites (summer sores and neck threadworms).

Dose accurately according to your horse's body weight using a weight tape — underdosing is the primary cause of drench resistance. Administer the entire contents of the syringe by placing the nozzle in the horse's mouth and depressing the plunger. For best results, perform a Faecal Egg Count (FEC) before treatment to determine if worming is necessary, rather than following a calendar-based schedule. Always follow the product label instructions and withholding periods. Tips: Modern best practice is to use FEC testing before each treatment — research shows 20% of horses carry 80% of the worm burden, so not all horses need worming at the same time. Rotate between different active ingredient classes (macrocyclic lactones, benzimidazoles, and pyrimidines) to prevent resistance, rather than using the same product every 8 weeks. For tapeworm control, you'll need a separate product containing praziquantel, as Equimax does not cover tapeworms.
