Disclaimer: This dosage information is provided by the manufacturer. Always consult your veterinarian before administering or adjusting any supplement for your pet.

Administration Instructions

• Prepare the Syringe: Take the cap off carefully so the paste is ready for accurate dosing.
• Position the Syringe: Place the nozzle at the corner of your horse’s mouth for safe and smooth delivery.
• Administer the Paste: Push the plunger while directing the syringe toward the back of the tongue to release the paste.
• Ensure Proper Swallowing: Giving it this way helps prevent the horse from spitting out the paste and ensures the full dose is swallowed.
• Assist Swallowing if Needed: Gently lift the horse’s head a little if swallowing seems difficult for easier ingestion.
• Store Remaining Paste: If there’s any paste left, put the cap back on tightly to keep it fresh and usable.

Directions for Use

• Single Oral Dose: Administer Strongid Paste as a single oral dose of 3 mg pyrantel per pound.
• Use Weight Marks: The syringe includes four weight mark increments for accurately measuring the correct dosage.
• Dose per Weight: Each weight mark corresponds to the recommended amount for 300 pounds of horse body weight.
• Ensure Accurate Dosing: Follow weight marks carefully to provide the appropriate dose and avoid underdosing or overdosing.
• Adjust for Body Weight: Calculate total dose based on the horse’s current body weight before administration for effectiveness.

For maximum control of parasitism:

• Foal Dosing Schedule: Keep your foals healthy by giving Strongid Paste every four weeks from 2–8 months old. Consistency is key to keeping parasites under control.
• Treat Mare Before Foaling: Give the mare a dose about one month before she’s expected to foal. This helps reduce the risk of passing parasites to the newborn.
• Retreat Mare After Foaling: Treat the mare again 10 days to two weeks after the foal is born. It’s a simple step to keep the whole family safe.
• Adult Horse Dosing: For horses and ponies over eight months, routine dosing every six weeks helps maintain a healthy gut and energy levels.
• Stay Consistent: Following this schedule regularly keeps parasite numbers low, protects your horses’ digestive health, and helps them thrive over time.

Additional Information

Storage Instruction 

• Recommended Storage Conditions: Store Strongid Paste at a controlled room temperature from 15° to 25°C (59°–77°F) consistently.

Possible Side Effects

• Parasite Resistance Risk: Over time, parasites can become resistant to any dewormer, which may make treatments less effective if not managed properly.
• Reduced Effectiveness: Using the same dewormer repeatedly might reduce its power, making future treatments work less well for your horses.
• Keep an Eye on Results: Regular fecal checks or other simple tests help you know if the treatment is working as it should.
• Update Your Plan: Adjust parasite control strategies based on test results to make sure resistance doesn’t build up in your herd.
• Think About Location: Use dewormers based on the types of parasites common in your area to slow resistance from developing.
• Check the Whole Herd: Looking at your herd’s treatment history helps ensure the dewormer is safe and effective for every horse.
• Follow Up After Treatment: Testing after dosing helps catch early signs of resistance so you can act before it becomes a bigger problem.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How does Strongid Paste help control parasites in horses?

Ans: Strongid Paste has pyrantel pamoate, which gets rid of large and small strongyles, pinworms, and roundworms. Using it regularly helps keep your horse’s digestive system healthy, lowers parasite loads, and keeps them feeling strong, happy, and full of energy over time.

Q2: What is the proper dosage for administering Strongid equine dewormer?

Ans: Give your horse a single oral dose of 3 mg pyrantel per pound, using the syringe’s weight marks. Following the marks carefully makes sure your horse gets the full dose, keeps parasites under control, and supports a healthy, happy digestive system.

Q3: What is the correct method to give Strongid horse deworming paste?

Ans: Place the paste on the tongue using the syringe, inserting the nozzle at the mouth corner. Slightly raising the horse’s head aids swallowing and ensures the full dose is ingested successfully.

Q4: How frequently should foals and adult horses receive this dewormer?

Ans: Foals aged 2–8 months should be treated every four weeks, while horses older than eight months require dosing every six weeks. Following this schedule helps minimize parasite burdens and maintains long-term digestive health effectively.

Q5: Can mares be treated with Strongid before and after foaling?

Ans: Yes, treat the mare one month before foaling, then retreat 10 days to two weeks after birth. This reduces infection risks for the foal and supports overall herd parasite management effectively.

Q6: What are the recommended storage conditions for Strongid paste?

Ans: Store at a controlled room temperature between 15°–25°C (59°–77°F). Keep the syringe capped and away from heat or sunlight to preserve paste integrity and maintain deworming effectiveness.
