More Info
The dewormers (anthelmintic) pyrantel pamoate and pyrantel tartrate have been made popular to horse owners under the name Strongid. Available as a suspension, paste, or granules, strongid is an anthelmintic that while not that useful as a paste given periodically does have some unique properties that make it a valuable dewormer. This includes daily administration as a preventive and increased dosages for controlling tape worms. This article discusses the properties of this drug, including toxicity and effectiveness, recent news about resistance, and gives recommended usage.
