How to Use

Dosage and Administration Instructions 

• Get the Gel Ready: Take the QUEST Gel syringe out of the package and make sure it’s ready for use. Check that it’s properly calibrated so you give the correct dose.
• Weigh Your Horse: Use a scale or weight tape to find your horse or pony’s accurate weight. This helps pick the right dose every time.
• Set the Dose: Turn the SURE-DIAL® syringe so it matches your horse’s weight. The dial moves in 50-pound steps for accuracy.
• Give the Gel: Place the syringe tip in your horse’s mouth and push the plunger until the gel is fully delivered onto the tongue.
• Don’t Underdose: Make sure the whole dose is given. Giving less than needed can make the worms resistant and treatment less effective.
• Follow Age Rules: Only use this gel on horses or ponies six months and older to ensure safe, effective treatment.

Directions for Use

• Weigh the Animal: Use a scale or weight tape to determine each horse or pony’s weight accurately.
• Hold Syringe Properly: Position the QUEST Gel syringe with capped end left, tick marks clearly visible for dosing.
• Read Tick Marks: Each small black line on syringe corresponds precisely to 50 pounds of body weight.
• Set Dose with Dial: Turn the white dial ring so left side aligns with animal’s weight.
• Confirm Dose Setting: Double-check dial alignment matches the horse or pony weight for accurate administration.

How to give Quest Get to a Horse or Pony

Treating a Second Horse or Pony with the same Syringe

• Check Remaining Gel: Confirm gel remains in syringe after first horse if animal weighs less than 1500 pounds.
• Calculate Next Dose: Add the next animal’s weight to the current syringe setting for accurate dosage.
• Adjust Dial Ring: Turn the white dial ring to the combined weight marking for proper administration.
• Administer to Second Horse: Give gel to the next horse or pony following standard oral administration directions.
• Use Multiple Syringes if Needed: For animals over 1500 pounds, prepare an additional syringe to complete the correct dosage.
