What is Pyrantel Pamoate Oral Paste?
Active Ingredients: Pyrantel Pamoate
Pyrantel Pamoate Oral Paste is an antiparasitic drug used to treat or control parasite infections in horses and ponies. It is indicated for large and small strongyles, pinworms and large roundworms. Pyrantel pamoate is an efficacious treatment for a current infestation, but it cannot prevent reinfestation of parasites.
Pyrantel pamoate is classified as a tetrahydro-pyrimidine derivative. It is a narrow-spectrum anthelmintic agent that works by depolarizing neuromuscular function, which leads to the worm's paralysis and death.
