How Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g Works Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g contains ivermectin. Ivermectin affects the nervous system of susceptible worms and bots. This leads to paralysis and death of the parasites.
As worm burdens fall, the intestines can function more normally. This helps reduce the risk of worm-related problems such as poor condition and some types of colic linked to heavy infestations.
When Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g May Be Used Your vet or SQP may recommend Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g:
• As part of a planned yearly worming schedule Used at specific times to target particular worm species and life stages.
• After faecal egg count testing Given when egg counts or risk assessment show that treatment is needed.
• For general roundworm and bot control Chosen when an ivermectin paste is the best option within your current worming plan.
Exact timing and frequency depend on your horse’s age, grazing, pasture management and previous worming history. Professional advice helps avoid over-use and supports responsible wormer use.
How to Give Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g is given by mouth using the supplied syringe.
Basic steps:
Weigh your horse or use a weigh tape to estimate bodyweight.
Set the plunger to the correct weight mark for that horse.
Insert the syringe into the side of the mouth, over the back of the tongue.
Depress the plunger fully, then raise the head briefly to encourage swallowing.
Make sure the full dose is given and swallowed. Do not divide a pre-set dose between two animals. If you are unsure whether your horse received the entire dose, speak to your vet or SQP before giving more.
Worming and Pasture Management Bimectin Horse Oral Paste 18.7 mg/g works best as part of a complete parasite control plan. Alongside worming, your vet or SQP may suggest:

Frequent poo-picking of paddocks to reduce pasture contamination
Sensible stocking rates and field rotation where possible
Quarantine, testing and worming policies for new arrivals on the yard
These steps help protect your horse and slow the development of wormer resistance on your grazing.
