Hi, I had bought Ivercare (invermectin paste 1.87%) today, it is Ivermectin for horses , I was reading guinea lynx and did not see this one listed. Would this one be ok to use, I will be doing this for my new guys tomorrow, if anyone knows about this could you help me out. Thank you,
 
They won't all be listed. Make sure the % is the same, though. Just make sure you follow the dosing directions if it is.
 
Thanks slap, yes it is the same percentage, I just saw that, I will do it tomorrow. Good thing I am a nurse hey, thanks again
 
1.87% is correct. It then needs to be diluted with either propylene glycol or water (250-lb. dose from tube with 22cc water or propylene glycol). I use water, but you aren't supposed to save the diluted ivermectin unless you use propylene glycol, so I toss the dilute after each dosing session. A tube should still give you five dosings anyway, since there's enough for 1250 lbs. I assume you already have the mixing and dosing info from GL?
 
Yes I do, I did my guys weights today, will do it tomorrow also, and then do the dose. Yes I plan on using water. Thankx again.
 
You can also use 22cc of vegetable oil, that's what I used and you can't save it with the oil mixed in either.
