Wormer question

[boxcarhorse]

I've just wormed my horse with Equest. I'd also like to worm him for tape worms... can I use Equitape straight away, or should I wait for a period of time?

Doesn't make it very clear on the box.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Yeah it's fine. Your meant to do them together anyway coz the equitape does just the tape and the equest does the other nasties. A few days apart won't matter coz they don't work together like double dosing strongid would. Also maybe a bit of useless info but works a treat on my horse! Equest and equimax are gel wormers so if like mine your horse won't tollerate the wormer in it's mouth, you can add them to a little warm water (not hot) and they melt just like they would on the Tongue anyway. Then it just pours over feed
