Re: [RC] Yet another Panacur Purge question - RDCARRIEIn a message dated 1/27/2004 5:35:08 PM Eastern Standard Time, sec@xxxxxxxx writes: When I did the Panacur Purge this past summer Star got a minor impaction and several minor colics from worm die offs, her worming history wasn't that great before I bought her, vet said that was pretty normal for adult horses with poor deworming history. We always hit them with an Ivermectin wormer about a week before we do the purge to knock off the worst of the worms, then do the purge to get the encycsted small strongyles. Most are on daily Strongid anyway, so should not have a heavy load, but we still worry about a sudden die-off causing colics. I'd be interested to hear if there is a benefit to doing the purge on an empty stomach versus with food...as much as that stuff costs, we definitely want to get the most bang for our buck!
