If my horses are already on Strongid 2x daily,then which schedule do I use first the ivermectin/praziquental, or the quest? Also, is there a wormer that covers everything? What wormers on the above schedule covers roundworms and lungworms? thanks

It does not matter which you use first daniela and both invermectin and moxidectin are very effective against rounds and lungworms killing the adults and the migrating larvae.

We worm every other month throughout the year, do you feel this is a sufficient?

Welcome Deb,
It depends on the products you use and how you manage your horses. If you want specific recommedations you should click on Vaccine Schedules off the navigation bar at the top of this page. If you want the reason why these and not other products, and a description of how to check your deworming program, click on Deworming and Parasite Control above then select the Overview Article.

PS Deb I have two hints to help you get quicker and more responses: You should reserve the bold for special emphasis and learn to post questions about your horses in your own discussions, which you can start at the bottom of titles of discusssions.
