We know you like to give treats and your horse loves to receive them. With new Vectin chewable tablets you simply hold out your hand for an easier approach to equine worming. Vectin chewable tablets provide an effective and enjoyable worming experience for both you and your horse.

Background

Ivermectin was discovered in 1975 and originally presented to the equine market in paste formulation. Its safety and efficacy against a broad spectrum of internal and external equine parasites makes it a mainstay in current equine worming programmes. However there still remains some room for improvement. Syringe handling, horse acceptance and the tendancy to spit out some or all of the paste constitutes drawbacks for you, the owner.

These issues have been addressed with the introduction of the Vectin chewable tablet, an ivermectin wormer in a palatable formulation that combines trusted efficacy with easy administration.

Why use Vectin chewable tablets?

Pwners can have difficulty in administering their wormers and over 55% experience frustration, anxiety, stress or upset when worming their horses.

With new Vectin chewable tablets you simply hold out your hand for an effective and enjoyable worming experience for both you and your horse.
