Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste for Horses and Ponies

How Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste Works
Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste contains ivermectin. This is a well-established antiparasitic from the macrocyclic lactone group.
Ivermectin acts on the parasite nervous system. It causes paralysis and then death in susceptible worms and bots. The horse’s gut can then clear the parasites naturally.
Because parasite numbers fall, the intestines can work more normally. As a result, Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste helps reduce the risk of worm-related weight loss, poor coat and some colic types linked to heavy burdens.
When to Use Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste
Your vet or SQP may recommend Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste:
As part of a year-round worming schedule Used at specific times to target roundworms and bots in line with your plan.
After faecal egg count testing Given when egg counts or risk assessment show that treatment is needed.
For general roundworm and bot control Selected when an ivermectin-based paste best fits your current programme.
Exact timing always depends on several factors. These include your horse’s age, grazing, stocking density and previous worming history. Professional advice ensures Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste is used at the right time and not overused.
How to Give Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste
Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste is given by mouth using the graduated 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.
Gently insert the syringe into the side of the mouth, over the back of the tongue.
Depress the plunger fully.
Raise the head briefly to encourage swallowing.
Always check that the full dose has been given. Do not divide one pre-set dose between two animals. If you think your horse did not receive all of the paste, contact your vet or SQP before giving more.
Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste is available as:
Single syringe
Pack of 12 syringes
Pack of 48 syringes
This means you can choose the most practical option for your stable or yard.
Worming and Yard Management
Eraquell 18.7 mg/g Oral Paste works best as part of a complete parasite control plan. Worming alone is not enough.
Your vet or SQP may also suggest:
Regular faecal egg count testing for suitable horses
Tapeworm testing where appropriate
Targeted dosing based on results and risk, rather than routine blanket worming
Frequent poo-picking of paddocks to reduce pasture contamination
Rotating or resting fields when possible
Quarantine and testing for new arrivals before they join main grazing
These steps help protect your horse. They also help slow the development of wormer resistance on your grazing.
