Easy Dose is a backline pour-on. The appeal over a drench is speed — animals can be treated moving through a race rather than head-bailed one at a time — but coverage depends on a dry, reasonably clean coat, so it is not the tool for a wet muster.
Supplied in 1L, 5L and 20L. See also Coopers Panacur 100 for an oral drench.
Key points
- Backline application — no drench gun required
- Three sizes — up to 20L for commercial operations
- Apply to dry animals — rain during or after treatment reduces uptake
Safety
Macrocyclic lactone actives (ivermectin, abamectin, moxidectin, eprinomectin) are toxic to dogs, and severely so in herding breeds such as Collies, Border Collies, Australian Shepherds and Kelpies. Keep dogs away from treated animals until the product has dried, store the container out of reach, and dispose of empty packs and used syringes where a dog cannot get at them. Withholding periods for meat and milk and export slaughter intervals apply — read the label before treating any animal destined for sale.
