[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 22060, member: 9"] Just for everyone's information (if you already don't know)--this is not medical advice--consult your Vet. We have been using "Strongid" paste de-wormer for our pregnant mares. The "generic" name (not to be confused with "Generic, no name products" is [i][b] Pyrantel pamoate. [/b][/i] The concentration of Pyrantel pamoate is 43.9%. We were paying about $9.00 for the "Strongid" brand. Then we switched to "Exodus" for about $4.00 a tube. Same product, different brand name. The same issue is with the "Ivermectin" (1.87%). Depending on brand name, this can vary between about $3.95 and 8.95 per tube. This is the same issue as that we all know for human aspirin: "Bayer" vs. "Store Brand"--same chemical compound. Depends on how much advertising you want pay for! Bottom line: If the ingredients are the same, go for the less expensive product. :D [/QUOTE]
